Will we ever see a sequel to Panzer Dragoon Saga?

I've heard so many great things about that game, saying it was the one rpg on the saturn that was as good as anything on the ps1. Will we ever see a sequel, or at least a downloadable version of the original?

I highly doubt we'll ever see another Saga, much less any Panzer Dragoon game for that matter. I think the only thing we can hope for is MAYBE a cleaned up re-release, but even that's very doubtful (it's rumored the original code was lost), without that there's not much they can do. I'd give anything to see it on the current gen. Also, Smilebit (who did Orta) is gone, and the PD franchise really has no home at present. I wouldn't hold your breath.

Can't say I miss Panzer Dragoon but I did like the outworldly atmosphere it created. Young girl on her dragon going up verses big monsters and battleships is just a great concept, but on-rail shooting is seriously crappy and cheap gameplay if you ask me, I want more out of my games. Ok some people like onrail shooters, just like some people are big fans of those 2D bullet hell shooters, but I certainly don't know anyone whogoes out there way looking for the next on-rail shooter that comes out, sort of hard to get exited about that sort of thing unless your a serious arcade gameplay fan.

Edit: Unless they come up with Avatar style graphics, then it'll probably turn a few heads.

Saga was an RPG, did you play it?

the very first advertisment for 'Avatar' reminded me of 'Panzer'

as much as I would want another Panzer dragoon RPG (Panzer Saga is one of my fav RPGs), I doubt it would happen, its fanbase isnt big enough to warrant a full sequel.

I dont think that we will ever see a sequel to one of the best games ever made. Like someone else said it is rumored that the "offical code" of the game was lost. Smilebit is gone and Sega is not what it used to be. IMO (still my favorite though) I still remember I had to reserve the game through a Mail order company from new york because no one here where I lived was going to carry it. I got home from work and the UPS guy left a note. I drove around the neighbor hood with my girlfriend at the time (now my wife) and I tracked him down. I still have that copy in my game room. I always hope deep down inside that a company like NIS or Atlus will strike a deal with Sega and rerelease their older RPGS for the new Handhelds I mean PDS and Shining Force would be amazing on the PSP or DS. If you get lucky there was an ANIME of Panzer dragoon (i heard its terrible)but its only for VHS.tommy_boy9999

Yeah, it didn't do well in Japan and Sega was trying to starve Saturn owners (so they'd be hungry for Dreamcasts) so they released it in miniscule quantities in the US. A real shame. I never laid hands on Saga, though I played and enjoyed all of the other games in the series.

Skies of arcadia was a great rpg, but I still havent found a game that is like Panzer Dragoon Saga.

The Story is fantastic and the Graphics pushed the limits of the Saturn. It was one of the few games to ever receive a 10 from EGM

ITs a very meloncoly story. Its basically just you and your Dragoon so there is a connection with just a lone character instead of the traditional JRPGS where you tons of characters to chose from.

My favorite parts of the game were the Boss Fights which were huge and the Music.

The only games that recently have come close to the same setting are ICO and Shadow of the Colossus.

Well the same style of game is present in Skies of Arcadia for the DC and GC, by Overworks. Not sure where Overworks is, but it'd be good to see another Panzer Dragoon Saga one of these days.Yagr_Zero
