"European publisher Ghostlight is porting Compile Heart's Xbox/PS3 strategy game Record of Agarest War (known in Europe as Agarest: Generations of War) to PC, and attempting to get the port on Steam via Greenlight. The port is based on the Xbox 360 version, and will use Aksys Games' North American localization.Agarest combines strategy-RPG gameplay with elements of dating simulation games, with a \"Soul Breed\" system in which you attempt to build a relationship with one of the heroines of each generation, with your relationship resulting in different playable characters in the next generation. This is a slightly awkward time for Ghostlight to announce this port, as well as plans to port other console games to PC, as the company's most recent release, Devil Survivor Overclocked, suffers from game-breaking bugs  &amp;ndash; and that just went from 3DS to 3DS.Show full PR text   Ghostlight announce PC Port of Agarest: Generations of War.
