Xbox 360 players were left out in the cold when Agarest: Generations of War 2 was only released for the PlayStation 3. However thanks to Ghostlight if those Xbox 360 players have still not yet played Agarest: Generations of War 2 they’ll be getting their chance should they have a PC and an account on Steam.
It’s interesting that Ghostlight waited 2 years after the original release of Agarest: Generations of War 2 to bring it to PC via Steam but we are always happy to hear games branching out to new platforms. It looks like Ghostlight is also celebrating a bit as players new to the series can pick up Agarest: Generations of War on Steam today, May 21st 2014 for just $5.09 or 66% off the normal price. There’s also other discounts on the Agarest: Generations of War DLC packs and on the Agarest: Generations of War Zero game as well but you only have until the end of the day to pick them up at a reduced price, so hurry.

THE THIRD INSTALMENT IN THE THRILLING AGAREST SERIES!
One day, the world was enveloped by a mysterious blinding light causing terrible destruction. The central continent, from where the light is believed to have originated, fell silent whilst demons began to spread throughout the world like a plague.
Sometime afterwards, a young man by the name of Weiss, suffering from amnesia, encounters the enigmatic Eva, from whom Weiss learns that he has committed the grievous sin of deicide. In order to atone for his crime, he must become the “Vessel” in which the power of the divinity he slaughtered will be stored. For it will be that power which will be used to resurrect the one whose life he stole.
For those who betray the divine will pay for their sins in the space which separates salvation and damnation, as will their progeny…
