LIVE A LIVE HD-2D Remake Revealed for Western Release

Back during the SNES era there were many JRPGs that never made their way to Western shores and perhaps one of the most prolific of these happened to be Square Enix‘s LIVE A LIVE.

LIVE A LIVE features seven different stories featuring different protagonists, time periods, and gameplay styles await. In The Wild West, a wanderer with a bounty on his head fights for his life. In the Twilight of Edo Japan, a shinobi undertakes a secret mission. Experience these tales in any order and what other stories will be uncovered in the process?
