Taito Sets Yūkyū Gensōkyoku 2nd Album Revival For Switch On March 18, 2027
The remake keeps the 1998 voice tracks and brings back the original designer and Saturn theme composer, so Taito is selling restoration rather than reinvention for lapsed players of the Enfield setting.

Taito plans to release Yūkyū Gensōkyoku 2nd Album Revival for Nintendo Switch on March 18, 2027. The game is a remake of Yūkyū Gensōkyoku 2nd Album, released in 1998 on PlayStation and Sega Saturn. The story and character voices stay as they were, with many of the original staff returning. Graphics are renewed by moo, and Takekawa Yukihide handles a new opening.
The original's setup carried over intact: one year after the previous game, in the town of Enfield, the player is a member of the vigilante corps Third Unit. The captain's death leaves the unit with the protagonist and Hexa, a familiar summoned as support, and the corps commander ties next year's continuation to one year of results.
Members are scouted and managed by the player, from a roster of 10 characters that includes Laura, the previous game's heroine, promoted to a main role alongside new faces. Weekly requests and a Heroic Gauge decide whether the unit survives.
