Square Enix uploaded the trailer if anyone is interested. Looks really good.

Edit: Trailer does contain spoilers, so be warned if you're new to the game.

I mean, I've played the original game but...that has to be the most spoilerific trailer I've ever seen.

I vaguely remember the orginal. It's been 20+ years since I played it. I'm pretty sure it was one of 2 games I came to this very site for. The other was RPGmaker. Played the Demo and decided its my game this quarter

Some like the ship being enveloped require you to have played it to understand first, and also the words accompanying this trailer are kinda... weird. Like, "we have the hopes of the entire universe riding on our shoulders"? No, that was not even a thing in the original SO2. It was an esoteric pair of planets, one which had some very weird stuff about it, aside from whatever final revelations from the final boss were coded into it by 4D, since you just know they will force references into the game about that despite those not being part of it originally.

But yeah, some very serious spoilers in that trailer.

Honestly, if you could, even if it needed some extra new sidequests, get all the characters regardless of starting character, that would convince me to try it.

Its a remake, it doesn't need to play the replay value card the original had at the time. Even FFX-2 let you get 100% in one playthrough if you follow a guide to make sure you get everything on the path that technically let you do so.

Star Ocean: The Second Story R appears to be yet another game on Switch with a physical release that requires a download.

Reddit user Casting_Quarters managed to find the RPG at Walmart even though it wont be out for another week. At the bottom of the boxart, thats where the dreaded download required label can be found. The back mentions that players need to download at least 3GB, but the final size is apparently 4.1GB.

Star Ocean: The Second Story R isnt the smallest game on Switch, but its only 11.9GB. We cant think of a reason Square Enix wouldnt be able to fit the entire thing on a 16GB cartridge. The company is also unlikely to provide its own explanation.

What a joke!

From what I've heard the download is for additional languages.

No idea if that's true or not though.

I just got charged for the pre-order, so I'm ready.

I don't work the day after it launches, so I get to play all day.

Cant wait. I havent played this game since I was a kid, but it was one of my favorites of that era. It might be the only one of my favorites that Ive never gone back to play again.

That is likely what it is, though not sure why they couldn't have included it in the cart to begin with.
