The first installment in the [[VideoGame/{{Grandia}} series of the same name]], Grandia was developed by Creator/GameArts and originally released for the UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn in 1997; however that version was never released in the West due to the system's poor sales and Creator/{{Sega}} of America CEO Bernie Stolar's attitude against 2D games. The game was ported to the UsefulNotes/{{Playstation}} two years later, and this version localized and released by SCEA in the US and by Creator/{{Ubisoft}} in Europe. In 2019, [=GungHo=] Online Entertainment, the owner of [=GameArts=] since 2005, brought the game to the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch in August, and PC via Platform/{{Steam}} in September. It remains the best-selling entry in the series.
