Development

In the North American market, Lost Saga was originally launched in 2009, hosted by OGPlanet and playable on Microsoft Windows via a standalone client. The service was transferred to WeMade USA in 2013, who then transferred it over to Z8Games during the same year. Z8Games would eventually cross-launch Lost Saga on Steam, starting on November 27, 2014, with each version of the game being identical to each other.

On September 19, 2019, the service for North American Lost Saga was shut down in its entirety by Z8Games. As there was no immediate notice on whether the service would be transferred to another company, it was assumed Lost Saga's time in the North American region had come to an end. However, in February 2021, Papaya Play announced their own North American Lost Saga launch for April 6, 2021, once again returning Lost Saga to the region. Prior to an official launch, a closed-beta period was run throughout most of February 2021.

Reception

In February 2009, reviewing the open beta version, ThisIsGame praised the character action gameplay but criticized the map design.
