Game Boy Advance RPG Coming to Modern Platforms After 20 Years
Sigma Star Saga first released on Game Boy Advance in 2005, and the game's new release is coming in time for its 20th anniversary. This is just the latest GBA game getting a second chance at life thanks to the Carbon Engine from Limited Run Games, following similar releases like Ninja Five-O. At this time, details about this new release are fairly scarce, but we do know that LRG will be offering a reproduction cartridge for the game, allowing it to be played on the original GBA hardware. That should be good news for existing fans of the game, as complete copies go for a pretty penny on the secondary market. Loose copies without their box or instructions are still reasonably priced (between $35-40), but you run the risk of having to replace the internal battery in order to save.
Developed by WayForward and originally published by Bandai Namco, Sigma Star Saga received fairly positive reviews upon its original release, though some critics were a bit harsher than others. Still, it's great that a new audience is going to get a chance to experience the game and see what it has to offer. The combination of space combat with a top-down RPG remains fairly unique after two decades, and should give the game a bit more variety than both of those genres tend to offer.
