In an exciting move for JRPG fans, Kagura Games and MangaGamer have announced that the legendary Rance series is coming to Steam. The release will include several major titles, beginning with Rance 01 + 02, Rance 03, and Rance IX. Future plans also include bringing Rance X, Sengoku Rance, and Rance Quest Magnum to the platform. This expansion allows both new players and long-time fans to experience the entire epic journey of the series’ titular protagonist in a modern and convenient digital format.

Modernized Classics and Tactical Combat

The first two games, Rance 01 – Quest for Hikari and Rance 02 – The Rebellious Maidens, have been completely modernized with updated graphics, sound, and a revamped battle system. Rance 03 follows this trend, offering new voice acting and a more strategic card-based navigation system as Rance attempts to save the Kingdom of Leazas. Meanwhile, Rance IX shifts the focus toward tactical revolution, where players lead a small elite force against a corrupt empire. This entry emphasizes deep unit management and careful battlefield positioning, offering a fresh challenge for strategy veterans.

Global Accessibility and Support

Each of the upcoming Steam releases will feature full support for English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese languages. The series is well-known for its unique blend of traditional RPG mechanics, card-based exploration, and character-driven storytelling filled with action and humor. By bringing these titles to a global audience via Steam, the developers are making it easier than ever to follow Rance’s adventures across kingdoms and political turmoil. Fans should keep an eye on official channels for specific release dates for each title in the collection.
