A 32-year-old JRPG classic that’s only been released in English on PSP is being revived for modern consoles and PC by the Lies of P publisher
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
Neowiz, the publisher of the Souls‑like Lies of P, announced a revival of Falcom’s 1994 JRPG The Legend of Heroes 3: The White Witch for modern PCs and consoles. The title, previously released only in English on the PlayStation Portable in 2006, has never left that platform, while the Japanese version is available on Switch via D4 Enterprise’s retro‑port series. Neowiz says the new version will retain the original Japanese naming and deliver a “polished, updated adaptation” that captures the game’s emotional core. No release date or platform specifics were disclosed, but the company highlighted a partnership with Nihon Falcom to bring the classic to new audiences. The move follows renewed interest in the franchise, spurred by the upcoming Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter remake.
💡 Why It Matters
- · By finally bringing the only English‑localised PSP classic to current hardware, Neowiz opens a dormant fanbase to modern distribution channels and tests demand for retro JRPG revivals beyond the Trails line.
