Mana series (2nd supplementary nomination)

[edit]

This topic is already featured. It is being re-nominated to add additional items. See Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Mana series for discussions of the topic's previous nominations. The additional items are:

  1. Trials of Mana (2020 video game)

The Mana series, known in Japan as Seiken Densetsu (聖剣伝説, lit. "Legend of the Sacred Sword"), is a high-fantasy action role-playing game series from Square (now Square Enix), created by Koichi Ishii. The series began with the 1999 Game Boy game Seiken Densetsu (Final Fantasy Adventure) as a handheld side story to Square's flagship franchise Final Fantasy, though the Final Fantasy-inspired elements were subsequently dropped starting with the second installment, Secret of Mana, as the games became their own series. It has since grown to include games of various genres within the fictional world of Mana, with recurring stories involving a world tree, its associated holy sword, and the fight against forces that would steal their power. Several character designs, creatures, and musical themes reappear frequently.

When this topic was created in 2015 it looked like the Mana series might be defunct; since then Square Enix has added a couple games (/addition1) and has remade some of their existing titles as part of a general trend towards HD 3D remakes of their older 2D games. The latest of which, the remake of Trials of Mana, came out a month and a half ago, and was sufficiently changed from the original to get its own article, and has already been brought to GA by ProtoDrake. As such, it's ready to get added to the topic. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 14:46, 4 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
