Set in the enchanting realm of Sandail, SaGa Frontier 2 revolves around the mystical force of Anima, which powers magic. The narrative primarily follows two protagonists: Gustave, a royal who struggles with his inability to harness Anima, a critical skill in the Kingdom of Finney, and William Knights, known as Wil, a young adventurer from a lineage of diggers who seek ancient relics known as Quells. Gustave's journey begins with his exile due to his lack of magical prowess, while Wil's quest is fueled by the mystery surrounding his parents' demise and a mind-altering relic called the Egg.
The remastered version of SaGa Frontier 2 boasts enhanced graphics with higher resolution, making the watercolor backgrounds even more vivid and striking. The user interface has been thoughtfully redesigned to improve navigation while preserving the game's classic aesthetic.
