The Dreamcast version of Grandia II is coming to Steam in a remastered edition.

Role-playing game Grandia II will be coming to Steam. Last month GungHo Online Entertainment released a survey on what games fans wanted to be remastered that were developed by Game Arts. GungHo Online Entertainment acquired Game Arts in 2004.

The Dreamcast version of the game will be remastered for Steam. Grandia will receive an HD update along with mouse, keypad, and gamepad support. Steam achievements and trading cards will also be added to the game. The majority of responses from the survey were to make a remastered version of Grandia II.

“With the rise of digital downloads, it is especially important that classic games continue to remain available to play in some form,” said president of GungHo America Jun Iwasaki. “Grandia II was chosen for a PC re-release because it represents both a hallmark of the Grandia series and an example of how great JRPGs can be.”

Grandia is also on the PSN Store. The production for the remastered edition of game was just announced so there is no news on an expected release date.
