Now that the game is coming to other platforms, though, Square Enix has taken back over. In North America, Nintendo published the Switch version of Live A Live.

Digital Trends found the game charming, with George Yang saying Live A Live "has the hallmarks that make it a good entry in the genre" in his three-and-a-half star review of the title. On top of that, this remake of a 1994 SNES game also gives the experience an extreme visual facelift with the HD-2D visuals that make games like Octopath Traveler 2 shine. Each comes with its own protagonist and gameplay gimmicks before they all crescendo together in a final chapter. Its story is split up into eight different sections set across eight different sections: Prehistory, The Middle Ages, Imperial China, Twilight of Edo Japan, The Wild West, Present Day, The Near Future, and The Distant Future. Live A Live is a unique grid-based RPG with a fun narrative gimmick. The game comes out on PlayStation consoles and PCs on April 27. Square Enix's beautiful HD-2D remake of Live A Live will no longer be a Nintendo Switch exclusive starting next month.
