Manufacturer's Description

In ancient times, mysterious artefacts referred to as Remnants were discovered all over the world. Offering incredible power, they soon came into the hands of the covetous few, and thus was the world’s delicate equilibrium shattered. The people were divided into those who ruled and those who were ruled over. War was inevitable. Our story begins a thousand years later...

 Rush lives with his sister Irina on secluded Eulam Island, a place far removed from the ceaseless battle for control over the Remnants which rages on the mainland. However, his peaceful life is shattered one day when he witnesses his sister’s abduction by a mysterious group of soldiers. He immediately sets off after them, ill-prepared for the evils of the outside world but determined to find his sister at any cost.

CUTTING-EDGE ADVENTURE

Developed to take advantage of the latest advances in hardware, THE LAST REMNANT features groundbreaking visuals and bombastic sound. With the might of Unreal Engine 3, SQUARE ENIX’s legendary production values have been taken to the next level.

 A WORLD FILLED WITH REMNANTS

The dynamic game world revolves around the awe-inspiring Remnants. They vary in size and shape and it is said that there are thousands or even millions to be discovered. Each Remnant contains a unique power that affects the abilities of those around it – but the powers of many Remnants remain unknown…

 HUGE BATTLES

The game’s innovative command system allows 70 units to engage in a bloody and balletic battle to the death. In the midst of the carnage, with visceral finishing blows landing left and right, players will experience the exhilaration of a soldier on the battlefield.

 CAPTIVATING NARRATIVE

First class writing is complemented by top quality vocal talent and direction, delivering spectacular drama which fully immerses you in the world of the Remnants.

 MADE FOR THE WORLD

THE LAST REMNANT will be released simultaneously worldwide, demonstrating SQUARE ENIX's commitment to gamers across the globe. As befits a game made to be enjoyed by everyone, the birth of SQUARE ENIX’s newest series is set to be a global event.

Top Marks 2 April 2009
Platform for Display:PC
Fun:   
This has got to be one of top single player RPG games out to date still not as good as FF7 (created by Square) but still it puts a whole new experience into battling monsters and bosses in a turn based battle system. Combat is based on Unions (groups of people in one group) if the Health of that Union gets empty the entire union is dead, this forces players to setup specific units in each union maximizing the unions potential.

The game aims on strategy when battling:
Characters stats
Weapons & Shields
Magic
Union Formations (key role in battling)

the game is well worth the money.

Pros:
Excellent battle fights
Timed button pressing while battling (increase damage or counter attacks the enemy)
Graphics are just superb
Story line keeps you interested (a true square story line)
Cinematic are great to watch
Great strategy setups
You can't out level bosses which means when you level up so does the bosses. Normal critters stay the same level though they do get boosted special attacks.

Cons:
Must have internet access to activate over steam (steam is a pain in the A** to setup but once up and running it's fine)
Controls can be fiddly (Don't recommend using the mouse as you do unexpected 180* turns)
Grinding for materials can get boring (to upgrade your weapons and shields)
Lack of control when in battles

9/10

Good buy 15 Jan 2012
Platform for Display:PC
Fun:   
Recieved this 3 days after ordering on standard delivery which was a surprise for one.
Been a good game so far, the graphics are good for the release date, maps are abit small though but the story is really gripping.
Good game overall, its fairly simple,however, perhaps abit too simple for my likings but overall i'd give this a 7/10.

An underrated game
This game, which was produced by SquareEnix, the producers of the Final Fantasy series, is a gem for turn based rpg lovers. Read more

Nice idea, sadly lacking in content.
The Last Remnant is an RPG that is far more in the style of Final Fantasy and Phantasy Star (the earlier ones) than Oblivion or Dragon Age. Read more

This is a terrible game, and I use the word game loosely.
This is a terrible game, and I use the word "GAME" loosely.
The graphics are beautiful but there is no game play. The game virtually plays itself. Read more

The game has a longer then usual story with an exellent combat system. I must admit that I expected a lot less when I bought it (meaning its even cooler then I imagined). Read more

There is no mention in the product description but you must have or set up a Steam Account to play this game and it requires you to activate it online via this account.
