Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, GOG, Nintendo publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

I bought the original from Walmart in 2001 for 20 bucks, and it quickly became my very first hyperfixation. I had a game save I played so much it maxed out the timer as I had spend an inordinate amount of time messing around instead of finishing the game story. Thousands of hours spent on this game in the 2000s, time to see if I can actually finish it finally... I approve of the upgrades, but at the same time, keeping the original character pixel art when everything else has been significantly upgraded is a huge visual clash and hurts my little audhd brain. Can't wait to find out if the one character voiceover I cringed at has been also upgraded to a much less annoying one.
Beautiful RPG, huge amount of content, love the characters. The amount of love put into this product by the developers is incredibly apparent.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 1: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.78/day in the week to Aug 4 → 1.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Ganz klar, jeder der Final Fantasy mag, ist für dieses Spiel genau geeignet. Eine tolle Story mit vielen geheimen Höhlen und Orten mit einer tollen Musik und Soundkulisse untermalt. Echtzeitkämpf und viele extra Möglichkeiten um schnell den Kampf zu beenden. Ein rundum Paket, mit dem jeder zufrieden sein sollte, der auf Rollenspiele dieser Art steht.
Great RPG that you can get really deep into. This game has all kinds of small mechanics in it that are quite in depth beyond just the story and combat system. The crafting and cooking systems in particular I sunk a lot of time into, and if you are the type that likes to break games these systems reward you for mastering them. On top of that there's a New Game Plus mode to enjoy the story again with most of your equipment and all your levels, which offers the chance to unlock new party members and endings as well. Well worth the money.
This is a top 10 of all time video game
A fantastic remake of one of the best games ever created. Can't recommend enough.
Awesome game, great remake
If i had 700 million years i probably wouldn't experience all 99 endings
SO2R is my second entry into the Star Ocean series, with my first being the First Departure R which mind you was a great game but felt quite dated. Now SO2R is beyond that, this is my favorite RPG of the decade and possibly all time. From Story to the most in depth crafting that i cant find any flaws with and the combat. everything screams perfection for me, to even the tiny details like the UI being magnificent. Ive only done one play through and beaten everything and im going to do my second route more than happy to do NG+ because NG+ lets me keep everything and experience the game through new characters i didnt get in my first route. This game i cant describe in words how much of a magnum opus it is, this is the best RPG to get right here and man i cannot wait for the SO3 to someday get a remake, as i hear it has the potential to be even better. Do yourselves a favor and BUY THIS GAME. if you like RPG's that is.
STAR OCEAN THE SECOND STORY R is an incredible remake that balances nostalgia with modern improvements. It keeps what made the original special while upgrading visuals, combat, and overall feel. The HD-2D style looks fantastic, and combat is fast, smooth, and much more refined. The quality-of-life updates make it easy to jump in and enjoy. What really stands out is the depth—multiple characters, branching paths, and plenty of side content add strong replay value. If you enjoy classic RPGs or great remakes, this is a must-play.
