Secret Of Mana Series Coming To Nintendo Switch
But you may have to read Japanese to play it.
The Secret of Mana series is coming to Nintendo Switch in Japan. Square Enix released a brand new trailer today and announced it will release the Seiken Densetsu Collection on June 1.
The collection includes Secret of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 2 in Japan) along with its prequel, Final Fantasy Adventure (Mystic Quest in Europe), and sequel Seiken Densetsu 3.
The announcement comes one day after the game's official Japanese Twitter account posted a teaser video of Seiken Densetsu 3 being played on a Nintendo Switch. Unlike the two earlier games, Seiken Densetsu 3 was never released outside of Japan.
All three games will be on one game card and also available through the eShop, and will cost 4,800 yen (approximately US $43 / £34 / AU $56).
There are a few new features, according to Gematsu: quick-save will allow you to save at any time during gameplay, and a music mode will allow you to listen to music from any of the three games from the home screen.
A special screen-change mode will also allow you to change between several screen sizes when playing Final Fantasy Adventure (originally released on Game Boy in 1991 as a spinoff of the Final Fantasy series).
There's no word on whether the series will be getting an English-language release, but thanks to Switch's region-free settings you will be able to access the games in the eShop and play the Secret of Mana series in Japanese from anywhere in the world.
