Ghostlight has announced on their blog that they will be releasing Record of Agarest War 2 or Agarest: Generations of War 2 on Steam later this year. Being as they released the first Agarest War and its prequel Zero on steam, it’s not too surprising they would release the sequel as well. Considering the games have done well for them, it was more like a given.

You can see the announcement below:

THE THIRD INSTALMENT IN THE THRILLING AGAREST SERIES!

One day, the world was enveloped by a mysterious blinding light causing terrible destruction. The central continent, from where the light is believed to have originated, fell silent whilst demons began to spread throughout the world like a plague.

Sometime afterwards, a young man by the name of Weiss, suffering from amnesia, encounters the enigmatic Eva, from whom Weiss learns that he has committed the grievous sin of deicide. In order to atone for his crime, he must become the “Vessel” in which the power of the divinity he slaughtered will be stored. For it will be that power which will be used to resurrect the one whose life he stole.

For those who betray the divine will pay for their sins in the space which separates salvation and damnation, as will their progeny…

Revamped Battle System: Unlike the first two games of the series, Agarest 2 battles are fought with an engaging active grid-based battle system.

HD graphics: Enjoy your favourite characters, environments and CGs in high-definition!

Mini-games: Engage in Bathtub, Shiatsu and Massage mini-games.

New Agarest Universe: Roam freely in the newly designed Agarest Universe

Besides the announcement for the sequel, they have also announced that Agarest: Generations of War and Agarest: Generations of War Zero are now on sale on Steam; Agarest War and Zero are now at 66% and 33% off respectively.
