SoMoGa Inc. has unleashed a revitalized version of Vay on Android, iOS, and Steam. This classic 16-bit RPG returns with enhanced visuals, a modernized user interface, and controller support.
Originally launched in Japan in 1993 on the Sega CD (developed by Hertz and localized by Working Designs), Vay received an iOS re-release in 2008 courtesy of SoMoGa. This new iteration builds upon that legacy.
Revamped Vay: What's New?
This updated Vay boasts over 100 enemies, a dozen formidable bosses, and exploration across 90 diverse areas. A standout feature is its adjustable difficulty settings. Convenience is improved with an auto-save function, and Bluetooth controller support offers flexible gameplay options. Character progression includes acquiring new equipment, learning spells, and utilizing an AI system for autonomous combat.
The Story Unveiled:
Set in a distant galaxy scarred by a millennia-long interstellar war, Vay's narrative unfolds on a technologically underdeveloped planet after a catastrophic machine crash-lands. This weapon of mass destruction, malfunctioning and bent on annihilation, ravaged the land.
Players embark on a quest to rescue their abducted wife, a mission that could potentially save the world. The idyllic wedding day is shattered by an attack, leading the protagonist on an epic journey to thwart the destructive war machines.
Vay's compelling storyline seamlessly blends nostalgia with modern elements. Faithful to its JRPG origins, characters gain experience and gold through random encounters. The game features nearly ten minutes of animated cutscenes with both English and Japanese audio options.
Download Vay's revamped edition from the Google Play Store for $5.99. This premium title promises a captivating experience. For more gaming news, check out our other articles, including the Loving Reveries update for Tears of Themis.
