Earlier this month, the Japanese role-playing game, Traysia, was announced to be coming to the modern age with a re-release on PC.
Titled Minato no Traysia in Japan, Traysia was originally launched in 1992 for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. It was developed by Telenet Japan, and the plot follows a hero named Roy on quests.
According to NicheGamer, “The game is a somewhat orthodox party RPG and gained mixed reviews at the time.”
This actually isn’t the first modern release Traysia has received, as it was released in its original physical Genesis/Mega Drive cartridge last year.
This year, Traysia launched on Steam on April 24, thanks to publishers Shinyuden and Ratalaika Games.
The announcement trailer shows footage of the classic game interwoven with a monologue that reads:
