The Japanese and Korean version of Shining Resonance, the Sega and Media.Vision action-RPG set in the world of Astoria, here in the run covering Korea. As a localization distinct from the Asian version of a title never released in the West on PS3, this edition draws fans of the Shining series mindful of territorial variants. Desirability rests on this pressing scarcity and on the absence of a Western release.
Is Shining Resonance still worth playing in 2026?
An RPG from Media.Vision and Sega, Shining Resonance has you play a young man harbouring the soul of a legendary dragon, able to transform to fight, in a heroic fantasy adventure carried by characters with careful design and a real time combat system blending music and magic. The warm art direction, the transformation system and the soundtrack win over JRPG fans. The classic pace and the Japan exclusivity divide. A good game for fans of Japanese RPGs, fantasy and dynamic combat on PS3.
