Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars Review [Capsule Computers]

Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: A Nostalgic Return to Classic JRPGs?

Nostalgia is a potent force, particularly within gaming. It can elevate even unremarkable titles in our memories, sometimes obscuring the reasons they were never revitalized or why a series entered dormancy. Konami’s Suikoden franchise exemplifies this phenomenon, remaining largely inactive for an extended period.

A Long-Awaited Revival

Nearly two decades have passed since the last mainline installment on PlayStation 2. While spin-offs appeared, including one exclusive to Japan, fans yearned for a true continuation. A spiritual successor offered a partial reprieve recently. Now, Konami has resurrected the core series with the Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune & Dunan Unification Wars collection.

HD Remaster Collection: Enhancements and Expectations

This remastered compilation presents visual upgrades and aims to implement quality-of-life improvements. The crucial question remains: Do Suikoden I and Suikoden II, in their updated forms, resonate as strongly as fondly remembered JRPGs of the PlayStation 2 era?
