The story
An overseas outlet reports that Brazil’s game ratings board has listed “Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United” for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch. There’s been no official announcement yet, but the thread was split over whether it’s from the same development team as the previous title, “Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven,” calls for a character design overhaul, and the original “SaGa 3″‘s reputation for a weaker story.
“Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United” has been rated for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch in Brazil.

What people said
Can't wait
Knew they were making the remake after all
Nintendo Direct?
The State of Play Japanese-games showcase would come first, wouldn't it
Idiot
I think if you play Mass Combat and Trade now, they're just boring minigames carried by good BGM
But if they don't switch this time, maybe there's hope for Square Enix going forward
Oh wait, it released on Switch on October 24, 2024
Two years might actually be fast for them
Hope it's 3

the Japanese title is just plainly Destinies United too
If it's the same studio as 2, it'll be fine
Exactly this
Please, no more of that cheap generic anime art
I mean, because the game's getting announced at a Nintendo Direct?
Meanwhile PlayStation is closing its show out with an existing title (FF7 Rebirth) lol
You're not seriously asking for Kobayashi-style art, are you (Tomomi Kobayashi, the illustrator behind classic SaGa artwork)
SaGa Scarlet Grace tried recreating Kobayashi's art style and it didn't land at all, so anime art or pixel art is fine by me
It got popular on pixel art in the first place
Making it without Kawazu around?
If they can flesh out the story, it'll be a masterpiece
Seeing that would shatter the Romancing SaGa I hold dear
My friend
I agree with every single word lol
That's what sells to the general public, so just don't buy it yourself then
Revenge of the Seven fleshed out the Seven Heroes' story, so if they do the same for 3 it could turn out really good
That added story creeped me out, so I can't recommend Revenge of the Seven to people
I wish they wouldn't force that kind of thing into the main story
They were even trashing '3' — pathetic bunch
For Xenoblade, 2 is the best one
This is about the remake, right
Pixel art yet running on UE5, was it
Not a shred of taste
The knockoff choices from an amateur work like ReUni just hadn't been called out yet, and they're mistaking that silence for approval
Re: #93
There it is, there it is
This is exactly the kind of '2' fanboy I mean lol
Only 670 yen huh
Just how badly is this not selling
Isn't that just because it's on PlayStation…
Background and Key Points of the Discussion
This rating listing is another example of a pattern seen often in recent years: a new title surfacing through an overseas ratings board before any official announcement. “Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven” released in 2024, and as of this thread it hadn’t been officially confirmed whether this “3” remake comes from the same development team. Opinions in the thread split mainly three ways: (1) optimism that it’ll be good if it’s the same team behind “2,” (2) concern since the original “3” is generally regarded as weaker than “2,” and (3) hope that it won’t carry over the anime-style character designs common in recent remakes. Worth noting: a rating listing only confirms the game cleared a review process — the release date and any official announcement for Japan remain unconfirmed at this point.
