Honestly Xenogears is a game that deserves a remake. Especially everything on the second disk. This is a game that, for all its greatness, was very very obviously not finished.
nah, they should just remaster it and then complete what was cut/scrapped in the same style so it all blends together. remaking it would take more time/money
It is the best game ever made. I really REALLY wish the new Xeno games had Takahashi's wife on the story writing team with him like Gears did. The Xeno series really lacks that Gears "punch" without her (despite also being great games regardles)
me to, not to mention Xenogears is also one of the games that still in the top10 game chart for 10 years straight due to it's popularity in gameplay and storyline
I agree with you. This is my favorite game of all time too. Not only dis I play this game over and over and over for years but, I played it so much that the game disk wore out and I had to buy replacement disks. At one point, I wanted to plan for the future and bought 5 copies and put them in storage. I still play the game whenever I get the itch on my ps vita.
Well how about *Final Fantasy VIII Remake - AI Generated* looks also quite nice, if you overlook the creepy smiles that is😉😅 Fascinating what AI can do(also worrysome i guess)
Unfortunately it might not be the whole game and secondly, it won't be available to download and play. Looks fantastic. See Square, YOU can make this game look superb, providing you're will to do it.
I can only imagine the effort to put all these things to work together (3D bg, 2D sprites, minimap etc etc) and I know how much passionate Vitor is about Xenogears, that's why he could make it. For sure it's a fresh take on what a Xenogears remake/remaster could be and it is an awesome tribute to one of the greatest JRPG ever made. Simplesmente o deboche, mano! \m/
I wouldn't even need the upgraded graphics, just finish the story so that these characters that I came to love would have the full closure that they deserve. Still this is gorgeous to look at and it's always nice seeing others giving this game attention. I'll keep dreaming for a rework/remake of Xenogears. Cheers to you for this!
"Music is a mysterious thing. Sometimes, it makes people remember things that they do not expect. Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten. Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember them or not." --Citan Uzuki
Let me correct you on that. Scientifically speaking, music (ear), smell (nose), anything visual (eyes), and taste (tongue) will cause you to remember things associated with them. The brain use these senses to "attach" certain memory to certain things, for future reference or to recall easily memories. There is of course more to it than just that but to stay on topic: this is not just music, it has to do with all 5 senses. That's why some have tears when eating cookies remembering their grandma. Some have tears when hearing music because that particular music is associated with some childhood memory. And so on...
OMG. I love you. Watching this in the early morning, sure will change the mood of my day. Thank you very much for this amazing project. Would love to have more. Xenogears is a game that didn't get much attention from developer as well as the era of remakes. Seeing how the second disc was rushed , while the story had so much to tell , as well as the whole xeno storyline.
This is perfect! The blend between 2D sprites and 3D environment is incredible and beautiful. Xenogears is my favorite game of all time, and it always makes me happy to see it's the same for other people. Congrats on the amazing work!
Squaresoft was really juggling between Final Fantasy 7, Chronos Cross, Legend of Mana and Xenogears back then and the last two games lost out majorly to the first two, Chronos Cross eventually got delayed in favor of FF7.
They made the Xenosaga games, but honestly I don't think they wanted to touch the original story because of the religious story parts. Japanese companies in general are very conservative, so they didn't want to ruffle any feathers. They never released this game in Europe because they feared backlash for the parts of the story that contained religious themes.
Not in bad blood stage. More like "whom are you working with now?" Another reason. Still remember Harada said higher-ups in Bandai Namco unwilling to give Xenosaga remaster solely "because it's a niche title". You can assume based on that alone why Square Enix pushing their other more known titles rather than Xenogears
I always wanted someone to do a fan made piece of idea of what a Xenogears remake could look like. I'm surprised it's only one of the first since we all want this remake! But this one is gorgeous!!
Gracias a la comunidad italiana fue posible la traducción de Xenogears a muchos otros idiomas y ahora más de 15 años después otra vez la comunidad Italiana (entiendo por tu apellido que lo eres, sino corrigeme) volvemos a ver todo un detallazo impresionante con Xenogears, de verdad estás jugando demasiados con los sentimientos de muchas personas mostrando esto -3- en verdad muchas gracias por algo así, espero muchos éxitos en el proyecto y que llegue a buen puerto. Larga vida a la comunidad y en especial a la comunidad italiana.
Absolutely wonderful remaster, captures exactly what I want from a Gears remake. If there's one more scene I'd want to see in this style, it's gotta be Grahf's introduction.
I'd easily drop 500€ on a collector's edition of a good, faithful HD-2D remake of this game. I'm not even joking. Xenogears has remained one of the greatest games of all time for me. I know it'll never happen, and I don't even know if it makes sense without anyone of the original team at the helm, but one can dream.
This deserve to be known, I'll make a reaction video about your fanmade project! This is what SE should have done already instead of losing money on bad games such as Forspoken and Harvestella.
Great to see so much passion of into reviving at least part of Xenogears. This is one of my all-time favourite games. I really wish it could get remastered/remade someday. Thank you for this small taste of it!
This glimpse of "what would it look like" surely excited me. I forgot for a moment that the creator of this game, left Square and already founded his own company.
Thanks for making this and for reminding me of my love for this game. Your art is beautiful but i especially appreciated how you were faithful to the original pixel art with Fei.
Sublime effort! Love that the sprite is effected bay the sun light, and that final shot gave goosebumps! If i may give a recomendation, I would preserve the original camera point of view and the angle snap so that the sprites can ben seen and animated in they original percepective.
Amazing how music can trigger so many memories.. Instantly brought me back to Christmas break 1999 - I was 13 and had just got Xenogears for Xmas! I still remember chilling up in our families game room and playing this all night! I can't believe its already going on what 24-25? years since then? Insane.
You're doing God's work Vitor! If Square doesn't want to give us a Remake to the BEST videogame narrative of all time, then we, the fans, will do it ourselves! Excellent work!! 😁👍
Naturally. It isn't meant to go anywhere. Reading the description, it clearly states this will not ever be released. It is purely for educational purposes. At best, it can be seen as a "proof of concept" to what such a project may potentially look like if Square ever chose to release it in a way similar to Star Ocean 2 R.
Maybe one day, when I'm old and SE has remaked everything that was possible, they will finally understand that Vagrant Story and Xenogears are one of the best games they've ever made and remake them.
awesome work! looking forward to seeing citans house - i myself modeled my version of it some time ago, I intend on working more on it and developing more my skills
Omg the soundtrack of this game always takes me back in time and gives me joy. Not sure what it is but I love this game with all my heart. Along with Valkirie Profile, Lunar Saga: The Silver Star Story Complete, Wild Arms and Chrono Chross... Pure magic
Never played a Xenogears game but I would play the hell out of something like this. As a proof of concept I love the blend of 2D pixel art with 3D environments. Crazy that it really hasn't been done before at the scale of a full sized game! Good luck to you man, hope you end up where you want to be!
This is really making me wish I could download Xenogears on my PS5. All the same this looks REALLY awesome, and I kinda dig the old PS1 sprites on that background.
Thank you for this amazing tribute to our beloved game! I would simply die of delight if I ever saw, say, the Elementals gears forming Erdekaiser in this style. Or even ID throwing a certain submarine around!
I love the concept of having the world be "photorealistic" while the character models are old-school pixel art. This is the way. Edit: omg I just realized at the 0:49 mark that his shadow is 2d!!!
The greatest game of all time. Never got the same feeling as I got from playing Xenogears as a kid. A true masterpiece it is a huge shame Square & Mono won't collaborate just to recreate and complete the second disc. I love FF7 but Xenogears is a plateau above, regardless of the sales etc, Xenogears is definitely better.
I was already a young adult when this game came out in 1998. I played it so much that I sorta missed work a few times! Still, 26 years later, a lifetime later, hearing that music makes me cry a little because of HOW good that game was! I still will find a track or two on YT and play it, because not only was the story so mind-bogglingy insane, for the era, the graphics and play were so much more, it was such a blend! Then like I said, the music, no PS1 game should have had music THAT good, but it did, they went hard, and all this time later it STILL goes hard and the emotion in the music is palpable. I just hope Squeenix doesn't try to squash this, even if it is never released, a video/demo of the major parts in this fashion would be an incredible journey to experience!
Honestly Xenogears is a game that deserves a remake. Especially everything on the second disk. This is a game that, for all its greatness, was very very obviously not finished.
And considering it was supposed to be like part 6 of 7 lol. Could have been one hell of a ride
I dont trust Square Enix to do it right. They will censor the absolute piss out of it.
nah, they should just remaster it and then complete what was cut/scrapped in the same style so it all blends together. remaking it would take more time/money
Remaster with updated character sprite and model,adding more cut content will be better start before a full remake
Yup but, do you really want today squenix to put their greasy, greedy hands on xenogears?
Xenogears is still to this day, my most favorite game of all time. Incredible work!
It is the best game ever made. I really REALLY wish the new Xeno games had Takahashi's wife on the story writing team with him like Gears did. The Xeno series really lacks that Gears "punch" without her (despite also being great games regardles)
Likewise!
Mine is Suikoden 2, but Xenogears is close behind
me to, not to mention Xenogears is also one of the games that still in the top10 game chart for 10 years straight due to it's popularity in gameplay and storyline
I agree with you. This is my favorite game of all time too.

Dreaming of this for the past 20+ years...
No other games deserves a remake more than Gears!
I would pay a full price for a complete remake like this one. Congratulations for your incredible effort!
So would I
I'd drop up to $100 easy maybe even $200 for this.
@@mikenemeth7484 with a fully realized disk 2, I would easily pay $200 lol such a great gem
please make it come out on PC lol
@@agetec5 I got an idea 💡 hear me out let hit up the creators of the game I'm sure they will listen to our crys
That's crazy. I just searched UA-cam yesterday to see if anyone had done something like this yet. 24hours later and this gets recommended!! Nice work!
Well how about *Final Fantasy VIII Remake - AI Generated* looks also quite nice, if you overlook the creepy smiles that is😉😅 Fascinating what AI can do(also worrysome i guess)
SquareEnix should do the Xenogears remake instead of those nonsense games in recent showcase and there exclusivity in game platform 🤔.
Unfortunately it might not be the whole game and secondly, it won't be available to download and play.
Looks fantastic. See Square, YOU can make this game look superb, providing you're will to do it.
Google will us
I would pay so much for a remake in this style. Xenogears is my favorite game of all time...
I second this
Third
Fourth
This is a dream come true. Bless you for taking the time to realize a project like this. I could only hope to see a finished Xenogears remake someday
I would buy a Xenogears remake in a heartbeat. One of my all time favorites.

How I wish Xenogears gets a remake treatment as Star Ocean The Second Story:R
And a finished DISC 2
Yeah that's the most important part for me if they decide to remake @@HollowRick the original disc 2 is a bit disappointing
I wouldn't even need the upgraded graphics, just finish the story so that these characters that I came to love would have the full closure that they deserve.

This is one of the best things i have ever laid my eyes on, words cannot describe how this short demo made me feel, thank you for this
Simply the best PS1 rpg so far and Square Enix just forgot to make a remake. Amazing work for recreating Xenogears's intro. Congratulations! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Squaresoft was really juggling between Final Fantasy 7, Chronos Cross, Legend of Mana and Xenogears back then and the last two games lost out majorly to the first two, Chronos Cross eventually got delayed in favor of FF7.
We need more of this! Absolutely great work!! This brings joy to my heart!!!
That's gorgeous. Wonderful work. Please do more with Xenogears!
Just beautiful, love the village, love that you kept the 2D sprites (That Highlight in the Sun and Darkens in the buildings shadows).
Absolutely remarkable. It almost feel like Square Enix and Monolith has some bad blood with each other for not ever remaking this..
They made the Xenosaga games, but honestly I don't think they wanted to touch the original story because of the religious story parts. Japanese companies in general are very conservative, so they didn't want to ruffle any feathers.

This is a dream come true. Congratulations for your incredible effort!!
This is the best thing i have seen all year since Star Ocean 2 remake, no kidding! this was my very first jrpg so it's quite special to me
The actual remake or a fan remake?
That's the most impressive 2D/3D blended world I've ever seen!
This is amazing. I love Xenogears and this feels like a love letter to how it felt in my mind.
I always wanted someone to do a fan made piece of idea of what a Xenogears remake could look like. I'm surprised it's only one of the first since we all want this remake! But this one is gorgeous!!
The studio who make xenogear is now part of nintendo. I had played some of their game but I think Xenogear is the master piece
This is the dream I want to experience for almost 26 years
OMG, how was i just thinking of this game being remade and boom, someone is actually doing it.
SQUARE ENIX GIVE THIS GUY A JOB!

We must keep faith for a remake. Krellian demands it.
What a beautiful video! I never imagined Xenogears could look like this before!
Absolutely wonderful remaster, captures exactly what I want from a Gears remake.
If there's one more scene I'd want to see in this style, it's gotta be Grahf's introduction.
This looks really amazing!
20 years later, and I'm still listening to this soundtrack 😆. What an amazing game.
Yo this is actually going to make me cry!!! I need this so bad!!
incredible work!
... and i NEED that nisan pendant as a loop
Hopefully I will still be alive to see this thing fully fleshed out.

This deserve to be known, I'll make a reaction video about your fanmade project! This is what SE should have done already instead of losing money on bad games such as Forspoken and Harvestella.
Thank You so much for making this!
Loved this game growing up, shame that we’ll probably never get a rerelease considering the Xeno license is all over the place.
Great to see so much passion of into reviving at least part of Xenogears. This is one of my all-time favourite games. I really wish it could get remastered/remade someday. Thank you for this small taste of it!
😊thank you for giving me hope. I've been playing Xenogears every year since it came out. I finish it almost every year or two.
Boy it SURE WAS NICE being EXCITED FOR FIVE SECONDS and then realizing this wasn't real.
omg man when the music started i cried T_T, this is incredible.
This looks incredible! I’d love to hear a full version of that Lahan remix!
It's the one from the XENOGEARS CREID album.
Wow. Nice use of the music too. Great concept to blend hi def 3d modeling with the original sprites.
i'm absolutely floored by how beautiful this looks. i only hope i see a remaster/remake of this game in my lifetime. excellent work, mate.
Man, you gave me a reason to live. Subscribed.
Man if Xenogears comes back take my money now. This game was just something special. Combat and Mechs. The music was something special
Also the story.. 😁
This glimpse of "what would it look like" surely excited me. I forgot for a moment that the creator of this game, left Square and already founded his own company.
Man what I wouldn’t give for a full remake
What an incredible project. I can't wait to see more from you!
It hurts to watch what will never be, but thank you this is amazing!!

i'm not a xenogears fan but i'm hype
Youre approach of high resolution environment and pixel texture avatar is appealing. I hope you make an original game in this style!
This looks incredible and honestly, I like this more realistic style for Xenosaga. Thanks for all the love and hard work you put in!
Good luck!!! Looks awesome 😎
Amazing work!! I would cry if they gave Xenogears this VIP treatment!!
This is awesome. I like how the shadow is accurate for the 2d character and it's just a thin line at the right angle.
I hope one day to see a remake that looks as good as this project does.
This is art! This has to become real!
OMG this looks so good. I would love to see this come to life would buy it instantly. Gears needs a Remake like this.
awesome work!

Well, if square enix still ignoring us for xenogears and chrono trigger remakes, then let's agree with them to launch a kickstarter 👍
Bring back good memories
Reminder that I really need to replay this. Maybe after my Xenosaga series replay.
Amazing amigo! Thank you.
that small two of pieces music really hit hard..
Thank you for this amazing tribute to our beloved game! I would simply die of delight if I ever saw, say, the Elementals gears forming Erdekaiser in this style. Or even ID throwing a certain submarine around!
I can only wish that there would be a remake for xenogears. This style is very fitting for it as well.
Bro this is sick! A remake in this form would be crazy tbh. Keeping that nostalgic look while updating the environments
すごい！原作の質感そのままでかつアップグレードしてる！これでフルボイスでしたい！
Gives real "Nintendo hire this man" with the completely unneeded hyper realistic environments
Congratulations, this almost made me cry. please create a full game rework :D
Music is so good that reminds me of the experience at that time and excite. スクエニ、聞いてるか？絶対に成功するリメイクがここにある。I hope that they will remake…
My heaet almost couldnt handle the beautiful memories and nostalgia. One of the greatest games ever made. GOD ONLY KNOWS.

If the game gets remade like this including remaking disc 2 it would overshadow most games in the last 20 years.
