Konami has confirmed the PS4 remasters of the first two Suikoden games will no longer release this year as the studio needs more time to "ensure the quality performance and gameplay experience our users deserve". A new date has not been announced, but it's now expected in 2024 alongside its spiritual successor Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.
The news was shared on Twitter, where the Suikoden team said it's "renewing our efforts to bring Suikoden I & II HD Remaster to release as soon as possible" and more information will be shared "as it becomes available".
Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars brings back the two classic PS1 RPGs and gives them a facelift with enhanced graphics and new audio effects. You'll also be able to utilise autosaves, fast-forward functionality in combat, and a conversation log. Are you happy to wait a little longer for these classic titles to return? Play the waiting game in the comments below.

After planning a release in 320p
Too bad but I'm glad to have some news. Better to play the waiting game than the guessing game.
I was half expecting this. I'll have more time to play it next year anyway. Hopefully it'll mean time to add more quality of life improvements etc.
It's unfortunate,but hope whatever team they have on this is allowed to do the quality job their PR suggests it is versus a Grove Street Games style mobile rush job!🙏
Of course they're actually waiting to release both games nearer the launch of the upcoming competitor title. I would imagine both Suikoden games are working just fine already. But there ya go. Gives us all time to enjoy all the other great games coming out between now and then.
I got Suikoden 2 out of a bargain bin in Game or Electronic boutique in 1997. It’s what lead me to trying FF7, so I’ve got to get this. Don’t care how long it takes to release. I’ve still got it, so I might have to drag out the PS2!
It's incredibly suspicious. It's like they really want to ride the Eiyuden Chronicle wave.
This better look amazing now.
Hope capturing the fifth squirrel is not requires for Platinum
Ugh! I was waiting, but might just fork out on physical copies. Only rented them before, but it would be nice to own them.
@feral1975 will it come as physical? Please say yes!
