Grandia was developed by Game Arts (Lunar series) and originally released in Japan for the Sega Saturn in 1997. The RPG was later ported to PlayStation in 1999, where the game eventually received a localization by Sony. The series has become well known for its charming characters and unique take on turn-based battle systems. 

We'll have to wait for more details on these new versions of RPG classics.

Update: Gungho states that the Switch version of the Grandia remasters will be titled Grandia + Grandia II HD Remaster and will be sold as a combo pack. It is unclear if it will be available at retail.
