Bandai Namco that the previous PlayStation Vita (yes, that Sony Handheld device) exclusive Action RPG Freedom Wars is celebrating its 10-year anniversary with Freedom Wars Remastered. The HD remaster will feature new and improved features from the Vi𓂃ta version including 4k resolution, 60 FPS, game balance and difficulty options, and updates to the weapon crafting and upgrading systems. Freedom Wars Remastered will be released in just a few months on January 10, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, an🍃d PC via Steam.
The premise of Freedom Wars is simple. In the harsh dystopic world, the game takes place in, your character has been sentenced to a 1,000,000-year prison sentence simply for being born. To work off your sentence, you must head out into the a🐬pocalyptic battlefield and take on colossal creaturཧes called Abductors, killing them to lower your sentence and dismantling their body parts to craft and upgrade better equipment.
I put quite a few hours into the original release of Freedom Wars back on the Vita. In fact, it may have been one of my most played games on the platform, as it was one of the better ones. I’d even argue it was ahead of its time back in 2015, in what was essentially a sci-fi Monster Hunter meets Attack on Titan meets Sword Art Online.
There’s even online co-op gameplay, and it’s fun to team up with friends to take down some Abductors. I’m excited to see the updates to crafting and upgrading, as it could really streamline progression if done right. We’ll know soon as enough as Freedom Wars Remastered launches on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on January 10, 2025. I certainly didn’t see this coming, but I’m so glad that it is.
