Suikoden III Arrives On PlayStation Network Next Week
Suikoden and its sequel arrived on PlayStation Network last year, and the third game in the series will be joining the others next week.
Suikoden is highly regarded among JRPG fans, as well as influential game designers like Warren Spector. A few years ago we had Spector on an episode of Replay to chat and play Deus Ex, and he personally picked the original Suikoden as the second segment game to talk about how it influenced him as a designer. You can see that episode by heading here.
When Suikoden III released in 2002, we gave it a 9.5 making it the best reviewed (from Game Informer, at least) entry in the series. The game will be available as part of the PlayStation 2 classics series on PlayStation Network on June 23.

Our Take
Suikoden is one of those highly regarded, but always hard to track down titles that collectors love. I'm happy to see it is getting a wide release on PlayStation Network.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
