Fans of classic JRPGs can snag the Amazon-exclusive physical edition for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, or Xbox--but you'll want to be fast

Lunar Remastered Collection Physical Edition Restocked At Amazon

Lunar Remastered Collection's physical edition is back in stock for Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox One. The physical edition is exclusive to Amazon in the US and has been hard to secure since the two-game collection became available to purchase on launch day (April 18). The Nintendo Switch version in particular tends to sell out quicker than the PS4 and Xbox One versions. Lunar Remastered Collection's physical edition retails for $55, five bucks more than the digital edition for consoles and PC.

This collection offers a great way to experience two of the most important RPGs from the 16-bit and 32-bit console eras. The original Lunar: Silver Star Story is considered a landmark title in the Japanese RPG lineage and was one of the first console RPGs to feature voice acting, animated cutscenes, and CD-quality music thanks to its original platform, the Sega CD. It was later remade for PS1 and Sega Saturn as Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete, which is the version included in the Lunar Remastered Collection. Its sequel, Lunar 2: Eternal Blue, also launched on PS1 and Saturn and built upon the gameplay and story presentation of the first game, featuring even more voiced dialogue and a larger cast.

Voice acting, cutscenes, and high-quality soundtracks are now common elements of video games, they were groundbreaking at the time--though the voice performances are now notorious for their uneven quality. However, the new Remastered Collection includes all-new English voice acting for both games--though the scripts for both remasters are based on the original localizations. Lunar Remastered Collection also includes the option to play with Japanese voice acting, and you can also swap between the new enhanced visuals or the PS1 visuals for both games.
