The central continent, from where the light is believed to have originated, fell silent and slowly, demons began to emerge and spread throughout the world like a plague. Sometime afterwards, a young man by the name of Weiss, suffering from amnesia, encounters the enigmatic Eva who tells him that he has committed the sin of deicide. In order to atone for his crime he learns that he must become the 'Vessel' in which the power of the divinity he slaughtered is to be stored. This power will be used to resurrect the one whose life Weiss stole, for those who betray the divine will pay for their sins in the space which separates salvation and damnation, as will their progeny... • New Agarest Universe: Roam freely and watch the story unfold in this newly designed Universe and battle colossal enemies in over 80hrs of compelling gameplay! • Revamped Battle System: Engage your ultimate warriors in a new faster paced combat system with real tactical depth and a wealth of character customisation • HD Graphics: Enjoy the all-new environments, CGs and your favourite animated character portraits in stunning high-definition • Mini-games: Engage in Bathtub, Shiatsu, and Massage mini-games! • Soul Breeding Returns: See your favourite heroines evolve over several decades through each passing generation • Choose Your Path: It’s not just the heroines you unite with but also the choices you make that will significantly change the outcome of the story.

Press reviews: “…the game executes everything extremely well. Agarest: Generations of War 2 is absolutely the best game of the franchise and one of the greatest JRPGs of its time. Worth playing over and over again, its introduction to the PC was a fantastic port and it retains all of its addicting gameplay and intriguing story that made it a hit on the PS3.” “Agarest: Generations of War 2 is one of the biggest, most ambitious JRPG's on the market.” 4/5 – Digitallydownloaded “With two wonderful previously-ported titles, Agarest: Generations of War 2 is not only the best of the three on the PC, but it rounds out the trilogy with enough fanfare and excellence that all three titles will remain as my favorite JRPG franchise on the PC” 8.75/10 – Chalgyr’s Gaming Room 

Notes: Agarest: Generations of War 2 is a Japanese strategy RPG in the traditional vein. Gameplay is divided between grid-based tactical battles where players take on a variety of enemies and 2D visual-novel-style dialogue sections where the vast majority of the game’s story is developed. During the dialog sections the player is required to make choices that affect their relationships with various female side-characters. At fixed points in the story the player character will marry the side-character with the highest affinity, affecting who the player character will be in the next ‘generation’ of story. Throughout the game the player reaches sections of storyline where still 2D images of female characters are depicted in provocative situations. Although there is no nudity, there are some images of veiled nudity and some situations with a sexual innuendo.
