Xenogears is a PlayStation 1 JRPG that is often considered masterclass due to its intricately woven narrative and compelling setting. Many fans have been claroming for it to receive an HD-2D remake as it has remained largely neglected aside from a PlayStation 3 PSN release.

I recently began playing Xenogears for the first time and am looking forward to experiencing it in full. So far, its opening has stunned me the most, looking quite incredible for a late 90s PS1 title.
