Forever Entertainment (Fear Effect remake Devs) working on Panzer Dragoon 1/2 remakes

This isn't me talking down on the Panzer Dragoon games, but honestly I feel it really shouldn't be that hard. They're both railshooters less than an hour long.
I would actually be disappointed if the originals weren't included. There's about a 4 in 5 chance of them making the art worse so having the originals would be a consolation.
Only Saga :) 1 & 2 are fun but not even close...
Waaaa- PDS is a masterpiece but absolutely so are PD1 and Zwei. You folks are disrespecting the masterworks of andromeda by stacking them against each other.
I just want Saga. Is it really that hard? Other games with lost source code have been reverse engineered (or whatever the correct term is), is that somehow not an option in regards to Panzer Dragoon Saga?
I've heard people talk such good things about it for such a long time that I'd love to be able to play it some day.

Hoooooly shit how did I not see this story earlier. This is incredible news!!
Sales of Orta on XB1 might have persuaded Sega to do the 1&2 remakes. If those sell well enough, who knows...Sega may just look into it.
PSA: Panzer Dragoon Orta is on sale for $5 on Xbox 360/Xbox One. If you now have a big itch to play a Panzer Dragoon game, Orta has the first game in it as an unlockable.
I need to see them first. I hate to be negative here, but the first two games are absolute masterpieces that cannot be easily replicated. Altering the gameplay also is sending off alarms for me.
I guess I agree that they need remakes considering the originals run at 20fps and only the second game has widescreen support, but aesthetically those are some of the only early 3D games that I feel hold up incredibly due to their fantastical designs. It will require a special touch for them to feel the same in today's ultra resolutions. And yes, please do not touch the soundtracks at all.
When a company does not care they block these sort of things if they cannot make money off of them. Look at how Warner Brothers locked away the No One Lives Forever IP for evidence of that.

They absolutely do care. They directly have an initiative for pushing more of their fan favorite games even if they suspect they will do poorly or have to license them out to another publisher.

Soundtracks are amazing on all of them
Agreed. Respect to all
I'm going to make an effort to be cautiously optimistic here because if I get on this hype train I'm only getting off when it derails. Seems too good to be true, something will go wrong.
On the other hand, if these were successful maybe they'd consider remaking Saga.

Well, several artists worked on them.
Personally, i would choose Kutsuzawa over Moebius (his cover is still great):

5 box for Orta, that's a god damn crime !
Sushee Games the developers of Fear Effect Sedna have only developed 2 titles before tackling on the remake, and it turns out decent (though not so polished as I'd wish) the game was also published by Forever Entertainment. I guess those studios are fairly new yes, but often headed by industry veterans (or at least people with some background)
FYI folks Panzer Dragoon Orta is 50% this week on XBL for $4.99/£4.49 (playable on Xbox One and 360) highly recommended esp. if you never played this game/series before (I was one of them before this game got backcompat last April) love this game and it looks gorgeous on my base XB1, I can't imagine what it looks like on the 4k!
The thread title needs to be updated: Forever Ent. is the publisher of Fear Effect Reinvented, not the developer which is named Sushee.
That is one of the main reasons I bought an Xbox One X this Christmas. Bought today lol
I'll be in day one to buy the remakes too, in hopes they will remake Saga next!
Speaking personally, I'm not a huge fan of rail shooters. The atmosphere, music, and mythology of the first two games is wonderful, but the gameplay was never all that interesting to me. The first two games are really well made, but Saga was something special. I've owned pretty much every home console ever (and a high end gaming PC) and just about every decent RPG for those platforms, and Saga is unique among all of them. I love PD1 and Zwei, but mostly because they set the stage for one of the weirdest and most wonderful RPGs ever. I'll probably buy the remakes in the hopes that it encourages a remake of Saga as well.
I just bought Orta and playing it for the first time on the X and it's beautiful. Even the CG intro holds up. If they can remake 1 and 2 with higher resolution textures that remain faithful to the original artstyle and keep the gameplay systems/mechanics and music intact then they should be fine and hopefully we can get a Saga remake.Well, several artists worked on them.

I hear that. As a fan of rail shooters, I would argue they are two greatest rail shooters ever made, all things considered. But you're right - there is absolutely nothing like Saga and it's starting to look like there never will be.
Zwei is still the best rail shooter out there. Sin and Punishment 2 is close behind it.
Even if number 2 ends up becoming a reality, it will take quite a bit of time for today's generation to actually accept it (or even realize it).
People are just too fixated on resolution, fps, etc nowadays -- it has gotten to the point that too many of the masses can't appreciate a solid video game experience unless they're told some "arbitrary technical" numbers about whatever it is that they claim to be interested in. Games are often overrated (as well as underrated) because of this.

Not sure if this is already posted.
So what's the status now?
On Nintendo's webpage they still have the autumn 2019 release date?
However, I haven't seen a specific release day.
