Classic JRPG Vay Revamped on Android

SoMoGa Inc. has unleashed a revitalized version of Vay on Android, iOS, and Steam. This classic 16-bit RPG, originally released in Japan in 1993 on the Sega CD, has been resurrected with stunning updated visuals, a streamlined user interface, and controller support. Initially developed by Hertz and localized for the US by Working Designs, SoMoGa's 2008 iOS release kept the spirit of Vay alive, and this new version takes it even further.

This revamped Vay boasts over 100 enemies, a dozen formidable bosses, and exploration across more than 90 diverse areas. A key improvement is the inclusion of user-selectable difficulty levels, catering to various player preferences. The addition of an auto-save function provides much-needed convenience, and Bluetooth controller support offers flexible gameplay options. Players can acquire new equipment and items, while characters level up, learning new spells and utilizing an AI system for autonomous combat.

The narrative unfolds in a distant galaxy, scarred by a millennia-long interstellar war. A malfunctioning colossal machine crashes into the technologically underdeveloped planet Vay, causing widespread destruction. The player embarks on a quest to rescue their abducted wife, a journey that may ultimately determine the fate of the world. Attacked on their wedding day, the protagonist sets out on an epic adventure to halt the devastating war machines.

Vay's captivating story blends nostalgia with modern elements, remaining true to its JRPG roots with experience and gold acquisition through random encounters. Nearly ten minutes of animated cutscenes, available in both English and Japanese audio, enhance the immersive experience.

Vay revamped is available now on the Google Play Store for $5.99. Don't miss this premium title!
