Similar to Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven, Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United is a full 3D remake of the original 1995 Super Famicom RPG Romancing SaGa 3. The game is set in a world that suffers a recurring disaster called the Rise of Morastrum. Every 300 years, the star of death eclipses the sun, resulting in the deaths of all newborn life in that year save for one survivor who becomes known as the Child of Destiny. The Child of Destiny of 600 years prior to the game’s events became known as the Archfiend who brought ruin; however, the one who followed became the Matriarch who drove back the darkness. The game begins a little over a dozen years after the latest Rise of Morastrum, as the Four Sinistrals who served the Archfiend return to the world from the Abyss.

The game features eight protagonists, with players selecting one and following their search for the Child of Destiny from their perspective. Each character has seven base attributes, which can be impacted by their Nonastrum, their star of fate. Players can select the Nonastrum for the protagonists, which can also impact that character’s tech and spell affinity. Players are also able to recruit over twenty other characters, each with their own unique stats and abilities. The game features a freeform scenario system where player choices can impact the characters they meet, events, and how the story progresses.
