While the is bound to be one of the year's biggest games, it's not the only remake from publisher Square Enix coming out in April of 2020.

Trials of Mana is a full 3D remake of 1995's Seiken Densetsu 3, a Super Nintendo game that wasn't ported for Western audiences until the 2019 release of for Nintendo Switch. Now, the game formerly known as Seiken Densetsu 3 is getting a proper HD remake with Trials of Mana for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC. At a recent press event in New York City, we got to play the first two hours of Trials of Mana on Nintendo Switch, and came away impressed at how while simultaneously updating numerous elements to feel fresh in 2020. Like the 1995 original, Trials of Mana allows players to choose one main character and two companions out of a pool of six heroes. The story will change.

For our demo, we chose Angela, the princess of Altena, an icy and warmongering kingdom. After experiencing betrayal at the hands of her own mother, Angela flees the kingdom and seeks the wisdom of the Priest of Light. Along the way, she runs into Charlotte, who is just as insufferably annoying as ever, though fans of the original surely wouldn't have it any other way. Charlotte is a teenage half-elf, but since elves age slowly, she's essentially an obnoxious teen in the body of an precocious child, and she's long been the butt of many jokes on behalf of the Mana fan community. Related: Trials of Mana’s Best Change Will Also Be Its Most ControversialThe demo encompassed the first steps in Angela's adventure, as well as a brief flashback to Charlotte's origins, and ended with the first boss battle, a memorable fight against the Full Metal Hugger, a giant enemy crab. Throughout our time with Trials of Mana, we encountered numerous elements that weren't present in the original game, from the to subtle changes in combat. Here's How Trials of Mana Remake is Different from the Original.

Upon starting the demo, the most obvious change is aesthetic. The entire game has been rebuilt from scratch in a new 3D engine, and the classic 2D sprites of yore are nowhere to be seen here.

Unlike the oft-maligned 2018, the new visuals aren't placed atop the old gameplay foundation; the entire game has been redesigned to account for the new visuals; most immediately, the ability to fully control the camera using the right analog stick is nothing short of a revelation. Areas feel more wide to accommodate this change, and areas like the Rabite Forest feel more lively and less like a series of green corridors. Visually, Trials of Mana doesn't try to chase after the epic visuals of something like, but instead lands somewhere in the late PS2 era, with bright colors and expressive character models securing something of a timeless, if somewhat lo-fi, visual style. Meanwhile, the changes to movement and camera control go a long way towards shedding Trials' SNES roots, giving it a much more modern feel. One change that is sure to get some fans riled up is the addition of waypoint markers on the map, which always lead players to the next destination in the main quest.

The original was much more of an open experience, and the will either be seen as a boon or a detriment, depending on one's point of view. Even with all the modern touches, Trials of Mana is still chock full of familiar elements; fans of the original will be happy to learn that the shopkeepers still inexplicably dance all the time. While not every line of dialogue is fully voiced, Trials of Mana is full of dramatic, in-engine cutscenes that showcase dynamic camera angles, a wide range of animation, and tons of voice acting. It's not the type of thing that's cutting edge in 2020, but it's leaps and bounds beyond the original, and certainly much better than the cutscenes from the Secret of Mana remake. The art direction, especially, helps these scenes really pop off the screen. Again, it's not far beyond what one might see in a high-end PS2 game, but it's important to stress that the lo-fi tech feels very much like a deliberate stylistic choice, and not a cut corner.

While Angela's voice actor did a good job at conveying her youth, feelings of betrayal, and dogged determination, the voice actor for Lumina sounded like a caffeinated office worker and Charlotte sounded. Well, actually, Charlotte sounded as exactly annoying as one can reasonably expect. Cutscenes are one thing, and walking around town is another, but where Mana games truly shine has always been in combat.

Trials of Mana is recognizable as a Mana title, but the enhancements made to the fighting systems go a long way towards modernizing the dungeon crawling action and mixing up the methods players will use to conquer enemies and bosses. Battles happen much faster overall, without any of the cooldown periods that made the original Seiken Densetsu 3 feel almost tun-based. The new combat is almost as fast as something like the original, but not quite as frantic or button-mashy. Positioning on the field is still very important to avoid attacks and target weak points, especially during boss battles. Taking a cue from the underrated PS2 title, Dawn of Mana, Trials features leaping slashes and downwards thrusts, which are necessary when dealing with airborne enemies, who must be brought to the ground before they can be hit with regular attacks. This is in contrast to the original, which didn't have any jumping in combat.

Overall, the combat in Trials of Mana makes the right choice in, rather than merely evoking the original Seiken Densetsu 3.Trials of Mana is instantly recognizable as a remake of Seiken Densetsu 3, but it only takes a moment of hands-on gameplay to understand how a countless multitude of changes can add up to make Trials feel like. Trials of Mana is more than a tribute to a 25-year-old game; it's the next evolution in the Mana series. Zak Wojnar is a writer from New York City.

Trials of Mana – Square Enix’s New Remake of Seiken Densetsu 3 Looks Incredible.I can’t say I played many of the Mana JRPG series. My introduction to the series was Legend of Mana on the PS1, then Sword of Mana on the Gameboy Advance, followed by Children of Mana and Heroes of Mana on the DS. I think that’s it Iunno, I might be missing one.I’ve never played Trials of Mana, but it’s releasing onto the PS4, Switch and Steam. All of which I have access to. With this in mind.

I actually haven’t watched the trailer for it yet as I just found out about it a week or so ago. Thus, I wanted to take the time to watch it with all of you.Trials of Mana is a complete 3D remake of the game of the same name back in 1995 – well, back then it was called Seiken Densetsu 3.

Since this is a JRPG. You can bet it’s going to have an emphasis on story – but hey, that’s one of the things I enjoy most about Square Enix games.Trials of Mana is set after the events of a great war between the Goddess of Mana and the eight Benevodons, evil monsters of destruction. Winning the war, the Goddess sealed the demons away and went into a deep slumber.

Fast forward to present day, the world is on the brink of war and the Benevodons are almost free.We take on the role of 6 heroes in their journey to defeat the monsters that threaten the destruction of our world.The game offers quite a bit in the way of customization for your characters. I had to do a double-take on this and research a little deeper because I wasn’t sure this was legit, but each hero has a selection of classes they can choose between, with each class having an alignment between Light and Darkness.Let’s use Angela as an example here, she’s a Magician by default. By leveling and advancing her class, she gains access to two new classes: The Sorceress with a Light alignment, and the Mysticist with a Dark alignment.

The Sorceress has access to elemental magics, while the Mysticist utilizes dark magic.Further down the line, every hero gains access to a third class. Angela has the ArcheMage and Grand Diviner with a Light alignment, and the Magus and Rune Seer with a Dark alignment. Each class is substantially different to one another, and provides players with a significant amount of customization for their party.So in total, there are 6 heroes and each hero has 7 classes, totaling 42 different classes to level. Interestingly, when beginning the game you’re given the option of playing as one of the 6 heroes.While you’ll no doubt end up meeting and recruiting all 6 characters, you get to choose who you ultimately play as, and who’s story you follow.

The story, the characters you meet and how the game develops changes depending on who you choose as your main character.I’m incredibly excited for this. I’m a fan of the Mana series. I know, I’ve technically only played through what, 4 of the games total? But I’ve loved every single one of them. And this looks just as good – probably even better.It’s completely overhauled, features new systems, new mechanics, voice acting, and best of all. It’s available in April. That’s just 2 months away!

Trials of Mana is available for pre-order right now and comes with some unique goodies if you do, so if you own a PS4, a Switch or even wanna pre-order on Steam, now’s your chance!The post Trials of Mana – Square Enix’s New Remake of Seiken Densetsu 3 Looks Incredible.
