Agarest: Generations of War ZERO exclusive game features!
Agarest: Generations of War ZERO contains many of the unique features found in the first release of the series such as Extended Areas allowing you to chain attacks together in huge combos, the Blacksmith’s Guild for experimentation in crafting of items and weapons and of course, the Soul Breed System where you must carefully choose your bride as this decision will directly affect following generations.
In addition to these existing game features, the following new features have been added:
The new Vacation Days allow you to get to know your party members better and unlock bonus items and locations by visiting various places in the towns. Also, as you build your relationship with the rest of your party you will unlock new costumes for them to wear.
Character portraits displayed during conversations have been vastly improved with the implementation of Motion Portrait. This brings characters to life with subtle animations really helping to enhance the stunning artwork.
With various other changes such as improved graphics and a brand new Card Skill System to allow you to customise your starting character, this is a prequel you won’t want to miss.
Exclusive to the PC version, this new and improved version of Agarest: Generations Of War ZERO now features Cloud Saving (which has also been added to Agarest: Generations Of War very recently). We’ve also added the ability to decide which direction you wish the controls to be offset along with a revamp of the DLC menu giving you control to pick and choose how DLC is added to your existing saves. As expected there is full mouse and keyboard support, full gamepad support, Steam achievements, higher resolution art and a number of other user interface changes to ensure that PC gamers receive the best gaming experience possible. We are pleased to announce that a selection of collectible Steam Trading Cards are featured, whilst DLC is included in the game completely free of charge with other bundle packs of DLC available to purchase separately after release.

Agarest: Generations of War Zero is a dense and methodical tactical role-playing game developed by Idea Factory and published on PC by Ghostlight LTD, serving as a narrative and mechanical prequel to the original Agarest: Generations of War. Built firmly in the tradition of old-school strategy JRPGs, the game doubles down on long-form storytelling, layered combat systems, and relationship-driven progression. Rather than aiming for accessibility or modern streamlining, it embraces complexity and length, positioning itself as a game designed for patient players who enjoy deep systems and legacy-focused narratives. The story unfolds across two generations, centering on a conflict between divine forces and encroaching darkness that predates the events of the original game. The first protagonist, Sieghart, is drawn into a war shaped by fate, ancient gods, and moral ambiguity. As with the rest of the series, the narrative is deliberately expansive, delivered through lengthy dialogue scenes, world lore, and character interactions that emphasize destiny and sacrifice.

The bosses are insanely hard for playing on normal difficulty and the amount of grinding needed to beat some of them is stupid.2 found this helpful

What I wanted was something like Disgaea combat with a Fire Emblem story. What I got was a janky, slow, and hard to navigate pop-up menu simulator with the story of an average hentai. Every single turn you have to stop to set the movement for each character (so x6), on a sideways grid you can't rotate that makes it difficult to navigate, then stop to confirm that movement, then stop to confirm the direction you're facing, then stop to confirm that you're done movement. Then you go to combat which makes you stop to select an ability to use every time (there is no basic attack), then press an extra button to execute those abilities for some reason, then stop to (even with animations turned off) wait for a little sound effect and death animation for each enemy you defeat to play before you can do anything, and if you want to skip a turn basically you have to scroll through a menu instead of just pressing one button. Now maybe that all sounds reasonable to you, and maybe there are means of navigating the menus better than I was or maybe you've played for awhile and got used to it but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ was this unappealing for me to play and I tried both controller and keyboard + mouse.
