Square Enix and Team Asano’s HD 2D aesthetic is one of my favorite visual styles in a long time. I was curious to see how Live A Live would look and feel on more powerful hardware after playing it on Switch and will be covering how the PS5 version is in this review. Live A Live launches tomorrow worldwide on PlayStation and PC, with it already being Steam Deck Verified. You can read my review of the Switch version covering the game and more here. I loved it on Switch, and featured it in our best Switch games and best soundtracks of 2022 lists. Additionally, the game’s soundtrack has been rearranged under the supervision of its original composer, Yoko Shimomura, known for her work on Final Fantasy XV and the Kingdom Hearts series.Following its Nintendo Switch launch last year, Square Enix announced that the HD 2D remake of Live A Live will be coming to PS5, PS4, and Steam. This innovative approach delivers a classic RPG experience with updated visuals for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC gamers. Under the direction of Takashi Tokita, who previously worked on Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy IV, LIVE A LIVE has been revitalized using HD-2D technology that combines the nostalgia of pixel art with modern graphics. The episodic story format allows players to customize their gameplay experience, completing each chapter in any order they choose or even playing through parts of multiple chapters simultaneously. The game boasts a highly strategic battle system known as the “checker battle system,” where players can also master diverse gameplay mechanics in each chapter, including stealth, suspense, and trap placement. LIVE A LIVE invites players to explore eight distinct stories featuring eight unique characters, set in various time periods ranging from prehistoric times to the Wild West and beyond. Previously launched on the Nintendo Switch to widespread praise, LIVE A LIVE is a story-driven RPG developed by Team Asano, known for their work on titles such as Octopath Traveler, Bravely Default II, and Triangle Strategy.
