Originally released for the PlayStation, Legend of Mana is the fourth game in the Mana series. Like others in the series, it is an action role-playing game starring a silent protagonist and has a top-down perspective. What set this entry apart was its exclusion of a fixed world that’s ready to explore. Players use a “Land Make” system to generate the world by placing objects on the map. While the series doesn’t have as many games as Square Enix’s most famous franchise, Final Fantasy, Legend of Mana ranks highly as one of the best Mana games overall.
The Mana series has made a comeback following the release of 3D remakes of Adventure of Mana and Secret of Mana, one of the most beloved games in the series. In 2019, Collection of Mana was released, packaging together the first three games in the Mana franchise. A complete remake of Trials of Mana saw huge sales following its launch the following year. Square Enix clearly sees promise in revitalizing the franchise for modern audiences, so it will be interesting to see what the company has lined up next.
Legend of Mana will release for the Nintendo Switch on June 24, 2021.
