The game's strong sales in the West led to a rebirth of the franchise, with Akitoshi Kawazu specifically crediting the remaster's success for convincing Square Enix to localize the console ports of ''[[VideoGame/SaGaScarletGrace [=SaGa=]: Scarlet Grace - Ambitions]].''

* PortingDisaster: As usual with Square-Enix, the PC version ended up receiving the short end of the stick, especially during launch. There were no in-game settings for PC, the resolution was broken on certain monitors, input lag and controller compatibility issues (which could get you into trouble during gameplay) and leftovers elements from the mobile version, like touch buttons and inconsistent areas where you could click with the mouse or not. While most of these issues were fixed with patches, some of them, like the aforementioned input lag, still remains unfixed to this day. Thankfully the [=SaGa=] team learned from their mistakes with their port of the [[VideoGame/RomancingSaGa3 third game]].

** Soul Steal itself can be considered a GoodBadBug as it was never intended to be used by players (it is set at the highest spark difficulty of 80) and can only be gotten by an exploit.
