Overview and Gameplay
Elwin and Hein are pulled into a war over the holy sword Langrisser, the Empire, Liana, and the dark power of Alhazard. This Super Famicom tactical RPG is an enhanced remake of Langrisser II, adding branching story routes that can change Elwin’s allegiance and the shape of the campaign.
Players fight scenario-based battles, choose commanders, hire troops, buy equipment, cast magic, complete victory conditions, and guide units through large turn-based maps.
