SaGa Scarlet Grace designer Akitoshi Kawazu revealed on Twitter on Wednesday that preparation has begun for an English version of SaGa Scarlet Grace: Hiiro no Yabō. He added that its not at a stage where the staff can assign a release window.

Square Enix began streaming a Japanese trailer for the game on Wednesday.

SaGa Scarlet Grace: Hiiro no Yabō is an updated port of the SaGa Scarlet Grace PlayStation Vita game. The port adds additional events, music, and characters, as well as voices for all battle characters. Square Enix will release the game for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Steam, iOS, and Android on August 2 in Japan.

Square Enix launched the game for PlayStation Vita in Japan in December 2016.

The game's official website describes the story's prologue:

After being banished for betraying the star gods, the evil god "Firebringer" returned as a comet. The suppressed dark demons also became violent, and the world faced a crisis.

The star gods granted one man power. He established an empire and led the people to wage war on Firebringer. The dark demons were pushed back underground, and Firebringer's star was sent away. Thereafter, the Firebringer's star and the dark demons have returned every 150 years. Many ages of emperors have battled Firebringer and the dark demons. Usually, the emperors prepare and can easily defeat the evil god, but there are also unprepared emperors who drive the world to ruin.

Kawazu handled the game's design and scenario. Kenji Itō composed the music, and Tomomi Kobayashi provided illustrations.
