Baten Kaitos I & II HD Remaster has been given a release date
Bandai Namco announced the Baten Kaitos collection way back in February, during the Nintendo Direct and since then there was nothing on it. While the game was targeting a Winter 2023 release, it has now been announced that the game will in fact hit Switch on September 15th.
The collection includes two games, which the name does give away, here is a little info on each title.
BATEN KAITOS: ETERNAL WINGS AND THE LOST OCEAN tells the story of Kalas who, while seeking revenge for the death of his brother and grandfather, meets Xelha as both embark on a journey to defeat the Alfard Empire.
BATEN KAITOS ORIGINS takes place 20 years before the events of the first game. The story involves Sagi, a spiriter who has a connection with Guardian Spirits and is part of the Dark Service – an elite unit of the Alfard Empire. Sagi sets on a journey to clear his name after being framed, and to unveil the empire’s secrets.
The collection is currently only for the Switch, which given the games debuted on Gamecube makes sense, but they might make the jump to more platforms in the future.
