Long before Final Fantasy Tactics and Triangle Strategy and away from the bright spotlight of Fire Emblem, there was Shining Force. Released on the Sega Genesis in 1992, it was like nothing ever seen before on the system. A prequel to dungeon crawler Shining in the Darkness, it combined strategic combat with RPG mechanics to make something that was a breath of fresh air for those on the Sega side of the ’90s console wars. Re-released on Steam as part of the Sega Mega Drive and Genesis Classics collection, it’s been announced that it’ll be delisted soon, meaning this underappreciated classic RPG will no longer be buyable on PC.
