Vagrant Story, one of the greatest Japanese role-playing games of all time, turns 20 today.
It first launched in Japan on PSone on 10th February 2000, right at the tailend of the console’s lifecycle and just a month before Sony released the PS2.
Vagrant Story was developed by Squaresoft (what would later become Square Enix). More specifically it was developed by Yasumi Matsuno and the team behind Final Fantasy Tactics, and while it never achieved the same level of success as some of the company’s other PSone JRPGs, such as Final Fantasy 7, it is considered by some to be the best of the bunch.
