Lunar Remastered Collection Review: Nostalgic Excellence with Modern Tweaks

Lunar Remastered Collection brings two hallmarks of 1990s Japanese role‑playing games—Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar: Eternal Blue Complete—back into the spotlight. Originally debuting on the Sega CD before being upgraded for PlayStation, these titles laid the groundwork for narrative‑driven, character‑focused JRPGs with richly animated cutscenes and state‑of‑the‑art voice work for their time.
This compilation includes both games in two distinct modes—Classic (4:3 aspect ratio with Crt filters and original pixel art) and Remastered—all sharing a single save file for seamless switching. Available on modern platforms such as Nintendo Switch, PC, and major consoles, it also adds quality‑of‑life features like speed toggles, improved inventory management, and enhanced menu comparisons.
The collection’s appeal lies in its “Saturday Morning Cartoon™” charm: bright, hand‑drawn sprites transition fluidly into fully animated sequences, recalling the nostalgia of mid‑’90s anime adaptations.
