Konami Surprise announces Suikoden 1 and 2 Remasters for 2023

Long-lasting silence on Suicodin Games have baffled all of you for over a decade. But Konami is moving in mysterious ways, and last night at the Tokyo Game Show the company kicked everyone out of their seats with a surprise announcement of a remake of the first two games, scheduled for next year.

It’s been ten years since there was another Suicodin The game, that was Jinsu Suikoden: Tsumugareshi Hyakunen no Tokion PSP, released in Japanese only. A fan-made English subtitle appeared last yearUnderstandably, however, people assumed the series had been abandoned.

This order has been increased before crowdfunding Success The Euden Chronicle: One Hundred Heroesthe spiritual successor of Suicodin Series, created by the original developers. It raised $4.5 million as of June of last year, And it really looks very impressive.

This was definitely a motivating factor for Konami, who may have finally realized that they were sitting in an abandoned gold mine. However, they kept cursing and ignored the endless sobbing. Until now.

While these new versions have apparently not been worked on by designer and writer Yoshitaka Murayama, who is working on Iodin ChronicleThey have brought back the character of the original artist Junko Kawano. Which is interesting, as it is listed as working Iodin Chronicle very.

IGN It’s got some in-game pick-ups from the new releases, where you can see improved sprites, new audio, an updated UI, and even a rewritten English subtitle – something the original ’90s versions sorely lacked. This is a big deal, Suicodin fans!

Oh boy, the art of the sprite in the battle sequence is so good!

At least one former Konami employee reacted in shock to the announcement. Yuichi tweeted, “While I was still working for Konami at E3 2015, I was told there would never be another Suicodin The game is not sold in the United States or Europe.

He added, “For those who don’t know, there are 27 real letters in the flag Suicodin And only 18 were revealed.” He says he tried to keep the series alive for eight years at Konami, without success, but he believes that if these lecturers prove successful, there is hope for a sixth game.

This means that, regardless of the major slips, 2023 should see the release of both Suicodin 1 And the 2along with Iodin Chronicle. They are like buses.
