Remember back in 2018, when Suda51 and Grasshopper Manufacture discussed the possibility of remastering both Killer7 and Flower, Sun, and Rain?
In the time since then, Killer7 was remastered for PC, but we have yet to learn anything about the potential Flower, Sun, and Rain remaster.
Well, there was an AMA on Reddit with Suda51 yesterday, and one person asked if a Flower, Sun, and Rain remaster would include an updated story and new scenarios.
Suda 51 responded, “I would like to remaster this one day. I’ve already picked out a partner to do so, so the scenarios would really be up to our collaboration.”
There are a few things we can take from this. First, he still wants to remaster Flower, Sun, and Rain. Second, while it doesn’t sound like it’s happening yet, he actually has a partner picked out for the remaster – which suggests it’s a little bit further along than just a vague thought that maybe it could be remastered someday. Third, the possibility for additional content is there, but nothing has been decided yet.
I’d love to see a Flower, Sun, and Rain remaster, especially since I enjoyed The Silver Case and its sequel. Meanwhile, apparently Suda51 said in 2019 that an extended cut of Killer7 is also a possibility.
(In other news, the Yo-Kai Watch “major game-related announcement” that had me pleased that at least Level-5 would be announcing something? That turned out to be just a release date for the mobile port of the first game. That’s why we aren’t discussing that today, like I half-expected to.)
Anyway, what are your thoughts on the potential for a Flower, Sun, and Rain remaster?
