Suikoden I & II HD Remaster Pushed Back to Unknown Date

Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars needs a little more time in the oven, Konami says. The much-anticipated remasters of Suikoden and Suikoden II have been delayed from 2023 to an undisclosed new date.

Konami said it needs more time to up the quality of the game’s performance and gameplay experience. It still aims to release the compilation “as soon as possible.” Check out the full statement below.

Notice Regarding Release Schedule for Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars

We would like to thank Suikoden fans everywhere for your ongoing passion and support for the Suikoden series.

Regarding the planned release of Suikoden I & HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars, we have reached the conclusion that despite the very best efforts of our dedicated development staff to release the remasters in 2023, additional time is needed to ensure the quality performance and gameplay our users deserve.

The entire Suikoden team is renewing our efforts to bring Suikoden I & II HD Remaster to release as soon as possible.

We will share further release information as soon as it becomes available, on our official social media accounts and official homepage.

We appreciate your understanding and sincerely hope you will continue to lend Suikoden your support.

Thank you,
The Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars Team

I hate that this has to happen, but I trust that it’s for the best. Who doesn’t want a more polished product? Besides, we aren’t exactly starving for games to play right now. Next year is… also packed, so hopefully Konami picks a relatively uncrowded timeframe for release. (And steers clear of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. I see you, Konami. I see you.)

When Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars does come out, it’s slated to be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox Series One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.
