While 2024 was the year of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, 2025 is when the Suikoden series makes its resurgence. A remastered compilation of the first two games launches in March, and Konami has released both their opening movies. Check them out below.

Directed by Yoshitaka Murayama (who also helmed Eiyuden Chronicle and passed away earlier this year), both titles focus on recruiting the 108 Stars of Destiny to rise against oppressive forces. Each title offers turn-based combat, tactical battles with armies, and one-on-one Duels between certain characters.

The remasters offer improvements to the visual effects and redrawn backgrounds alongside various quality-of-life options. Players can fast-forward through combat to speed up the pacing or enable auto-battling. The UI is also updated to “fit modern times”, while the sound effects have received the HD treatment.

Suikoden 1 and 2 HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars launches on March 6th, 2025, for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
