I had a chance to play through most of the re-release this past week.
Luckily, this new PC version, dubbed Grandia II Anniversary Edition, is based off of the Dreamcast version. Hearing that a new PC version of the game was coming therefore easily caught my interest. Without a Dreamcast I sadly had to settle for the PS2 version of Grandia II, which proceeded to lock up on me no less than eight times during my playthrough. I actually played through the Grandia series for the first time myself relatively recently - just back in 2013. While the original Grandia II had an earlier port to PC a few years after its initial launch in 2000 - as well as a port on the PlayStation 2 - both were significantly marred with performance issues and neither could stand up to the Dreamcast original, which I can attest to personally. Only about 3 months after a surprising announcement in May, cult favorite JRPG Grandia II will be available on Steam and GOG storefronts later today.
