SoMoGa Inc. has unleashed a revitalized version of Vay on Android, iOS, and Steam. This classic 16-bit RPG returns with stunning updated visuals, a streamlined user interface, and welcome controller support.
Originally launched in Japan in 1993 for the Sega CD (developed by Hertz and localized for the US by Working Designs), Vay received a prior iOS re-release by SoMoGa in 2008. This new version builds on that legacy.
What's New in the Revamped Vay?
The updated Vay boasts over 100 enemies and a dozen challenging bosses. Explore over 90 diverse areas, each brimming with adventure. A standout feature is the adjustable difficulty levels, catering to various player preferences.
Convenience features include auto-saving and Bluetooth controller support for personalized gameplay. Players can acquire new equipment and items, unlock new spells through character leveling, and even utilize an AI system for autonomous character combat.
The Story:
Set in a distant galaxy scarred by a millennia-long interstellar war, Vay unfolds on a technologically primitive planet after a catastrophic event. A colossal, malfunctioning war machine crashes into the planet, unleashing devastation and destruction.
Players embark on a quest to rescue their kidnapped wife and potentially save the world. The game begins on their wedding day, with the bride's abduction serving as the catalyst for an epic journey to thwart the destructive war machines.
Vay's compelling narrative blends nostalgia with fresh elements. Staying true to its JRPG roots, characters gain experience and gold through random encounters. The game features nearly ten minutes of animated cutscenes, available in both English and Japanese audio.
Download the premium version of the revamped Vay from the Google Play Store for $5.99. Be sure to check out our other gaming news as well.
