Ah, it's about time the Mana series sprouted new life with Visions of Mana, and with a classic action RPG feel, it's like a warm nostalgia trip given a fresh coat of paint. It'll be interesting to see how they balance the charm of the old with the dazzle of the new in 2024 — definitely something to watch for all of us who grew up swinging the Sword of Mana.
