Sea of Stars is a new retro console RPG made by Canadian studio Sabotage. It is actually a prequel to their first game The Messenger from 2018, which was like a Ninja Gaiden-inspired action platformer. This time around, Sea of Stars is a full-blown turn-based JRPG-like game in the style of classic SNES titles, with amazing pixel art graphics and music done by the same composer who did both Chrono titles and Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Yasunori Mitsuda! Sounds legit, right?
