Square Enix game producer and designer Akitoshi Kawazu announced on Twitter on Saturday that Square Enix is "working now" on an English version of the PlayStation Vita version of the Romancing SaGa 2 game.

For PSVita, we're working now. I want your patience, please.
Square Enix released the smartphone port of Romancing SaGa 2 on iOS and Android on Thursday in English worldwide. The game's official Twitter account had announced the worldwide release last month, but did not state any plans at the time to release the PlayStation Vita version outside of Japan.
The new ports were originally slated for release in winter in Japan, but Square Enix delayed the release to March 24.
The re-release retains the character sprites from the original 1993 SNES game, but the backgrounds and battle graphics are new. The game includes the additional classes and a dungeon that were included with the 2010 mobile version of the game.
Square Enix released the Makai Tōshi SaGa (The Final Fantasy Legend in North America) game in 1989. Since then, there have been many installments in the series, including ports and remakes. The last full-fledged SaGa game, Unlimited Saga, shipped in 2003. Square Enix will release SaGa Scarlet Grace on the PlayStation Vita later this year.
