“We have another big surprise for SaGa fans: a collaboration between Vampire Survivors (yes, that Vampire Survivors!) and SaGa Emerald Beyond.
You may be wondering what could have possibly brought a bullet hell, survival roguelike and SaGa together.
This collaboration was realised thanks to Luca from Poncle being a fan of the SaGa franchise.
I would never have imagined that SaGa would continue to expand in this way, so at the same time as being totally surprised, I feel a new, fresh kind of joy.
To the SaGa fans out there who haven’t experienced Vampire Survivors yet: please seize this opportunity to jump in and enjoy Vampire Survivors.
And I would love for Vampire Survivors fans to try playing SaGa Emerald Beyond as well.
But first, let’s enjoy Vampire Survivors: Emerald Diorama.
I’m going to be playing too – until my fingers hurt!”
“Firstly, I’m truly delighted that this day has arrived.
Thank you so much to Luca and all the creators at Poncle for your love of SaGa Emerald Beyond.
I’ll also be diving in and enjoying this collaboration!”
- Masanori Ichikawa, SaGa Franchise Producer
