Is Sega Ages 2500 Series Vol. 1 - Phantasy Star Generation-1 still worth playing in 2026?

A 3D remake by 3D Ages of the first Phantasy Star, this Sega Ages volume rebuilds the Master System's pioneering JRPG with modernised graphics and reworked first person dungeons, while respecting its science-fantasy story with the heroine Alis. The respectful modernisation, the timeless charm of the world and the increased accessibility win you over. The classicism of the system and the Japan exclusivity weigh on it. A fine reworking for fans of historical JRPGs and of the Sega legacy.
