About this game

The latest standalone entry in the SaGa franchise, SaGa Emerald Beyond, brings together the very best elements of the beloved series to offer each player their own unique gameplay experience.

Make use of glimmers and combos in battle; meet a diverse cast of races, including monsters, mechs, and vampires; and experience your very own story, created through your choices and actions.

Distant Worlds Woven Together:
Travel to 17 unique worlds from the Junction, either led by the hand of destiny or by a path forged by your own choices.
Discover the completely different cultures and landscapes, ranging from a densely developed forest of skyscrapers and a green and luscious habitat covered in plant life to a world governed by five witches, or one ruled by vampires - just to name a few of the distinct settings.

An Eclectic Cast of Protagonists:
Six leading characters, all from diverse backgrounds and with vastly different goals, set out on their journey in five unique story arcs.
They venture to the myriad of worlds for their very own personal reasons: One, a human on a mission to protect the barrier defending his city; another, a witch trying to regain her lost magic while maintaining her disguise as a schoolgirl; and yet another, a vampire lord out to regain his crown and reclaim the throne as the rightful king of his world.
Even selecting the same protagonist for a second--or third or fourth--playthrough will lead to completely new events and stories, a completely fresh path and experience.

A Story of Your Very Own Making:
SaGa Emerald Beyond has the greatest number of branching plots of any game in the SaGa series.
The story branches abundantly depending on your choices and actions. Every time you visit a world, the story will evolve, allowing the protagonist and player alike to discover new possibilities.
As the story unfolds in this way it becomes a tale all of your own, not only affecting the path you walk but also the multiple potential endings that await each protagonist.

Battles where a Single Choice Can Change Everything:
SaGa Emerald Beyond further refines the highly strategic Timeline Battles the SaGa franchise has been long renowned for. With series mainstays such as the skill to spontaneously acquire abilities through the Glimmer system, tactical ally placement known as Formations, and United Attacks that enable individual skills to connect together to form devastating chain attacks, it offers the best iteration of SaGa's turn-based combat to date.

The new combat system adds more drama than ever before, allowing you to support party members, interrupt enemy actions, and use United Attacks by strategically manipulating the order of ally actions.

The characters that join you, the weapons you wield, your party formation, and your tactics in battle - everything is up to you!

Ratings and reviews

Battle system is better and is made for ios/android. Underrated series. Romancing saga 1 minstrel song to this latest it's FF but in reverse. brutal and less talking more fighting . 💪 and the game doesn't "end" with 1 playthrough. drop 300 hundred hours and you will die and see different things each time. like hunting for the ultimate weapon after end yet this game is getting endings in no order. don't use a guide just play it your way 11/10. Saga is it's own genre and deserves a big budget.

Combat is the most engaging and complex turn based combat I have seen. Each turn, you see the exact turn order and manipulate it with attacks that act faster or slower, linking party members into attack chains and disrupting enemy combos. Critically, because you see the name of enemy attacks and have no healing options, you will learn to plan when to defend, parry, or deflect powerful single and area attacks. The result is an addictive experience akin to creating line combos in Tetris.

So lets start with the positives: If you want to play SaGa, same as on the consoles, this is pretty much it. It's plot-heavy fun, and runs perfectly fine on a two year old, mid-tier. But the caveats. This has been made touch-only, meaning accessories like the Kishi/Backbone are useless; An odd choice for a console-priced game, making it hard to play on Android consoles. Secondly, if you switch out to other apps and then come back, the sound can entirely turn off until you restart the game.
