About LUNAR: The Silver Star
Originally developed by GAME ARTS, creators of the GRANDIA series, LUNAR: The Silver Star was met with wide critical acclaim upon its first release on the SEGA CD in 1992. As its first hit game, LUNAR: The Silver Star remains the best-selling SEGA CD title of all time in Japan. Relive the tale with Alex Noa – a young and resilient fighter who recently passed the White Dragon’s trial–as he embarks on his journey to become a Dragonmaster. As Alex revels in his success in passing the trial, a mysterious Magic Emperor unexpectedly enters the fold, aiming for world domination. With young Alex determined to become a Dragonmaster, will he and his companions band together and succeed in saving the world? The PlayStation 1 version, LUNAR: Silver Star Story Complete, is included in the LUNAR Remastered Collection, which will be available on PlayStation 4 (compatible with PlayStation 5), Xbox One (compatible with Xbox Series X|S), Nintendo Switch™, and Steam on April 18, 2025.
