Sting announced first details regarding the PlayStation 2 version of its classic Action RPG Baroque. Originally released for the Saturn in 1998, the game was ported to PlayStation the following year. For the PlayStation 2 release, the development team at Sting is using the new hardware's power to significantly improve the visuals of the 32-bit versions. The PlayStation 2 title, for instance, will feature 3D character models. The developers also promise improved direction and enhancements related to the game's battle system.

Baroque for PlayStation 2 will be available in Japan later this year.
