About Star Ocean: The Second Story R
STAR OCEAN: THE SECOND STORY R is a remake of the second STAR OCEAN game, with 2D pixel characters set in 3D environments. In Space Date 366, Federation officer Claude is transported to a mystical planet. While looking for a way home, he meets Rena and becomes involved in a quest to save her people, as foretold by an ancient prophecy.
A story with two protagonists
You can begin the journey as Claude or Rena. Your choice changes the story’s perspective and which allies you can recruit. Private Actions let you get to know your party members and develop relationships, with various endings to unlock. The remake also features new character illustrations by series artist Yukihiro Kajimoto.
Explore and fight
The world ranges from dangerous dungeons to bustling towns. Battles use fast-paced combat and new mechanics: deal damage continuously to “Break” enemies, then direct allies to follow up with an Assault Action for massive damage.
Develop your party
You can shape your party’s progression with skills such as Cooking, Art and Alchemy. Raise Specialty levels and use the enhanced Item Creation system to craft equipment with different effects.
Voice and music
Event scenes are fully voiced in Japanese and English by the original game’s voice cast. Dialogue from STAR OCEAN SECOND EVOLUTION (2008) is also included and can be selected. Motoi Sakuraba’s rearranged soundtrack features full-band and strings performances, along with new recordings for exploration and movie scenes.
Difficulty modes
Choose from three difficulty modes: EARTH for a relaxing journey, GALAXY for a satisfying challenge, or UNIVERSE to test your skills.
