Square Enix has unveiled the opening for the upcoming Star Ocean The Second Story R, a 2.5D remake of the second installment of the epic Star Ocean franchise. The opening movie is gorgeous, showing us the characters, areas, and stakes we will encounter in a visually appealing anime style.

Star Ocean The Second Story R is shaping into an exciting JRPG remake. Unlike the original, this version has overhauled visuals, new gameplay mechanics, a rearranged soundtrack, and more. With how the game looks, it should be a fantastic game to play on the go with the Steam Deck, and I can't wait to see more of it!
