I've done a playthrough of this game on my YT channel on the hardest difficulty. I've played this game countless times and would really like to see it on modern systems with a widescreen fix. I have a physical copy of this game but neither that nor the Abandonware copy works on Win 10 anymore. Hope it'll come to GOG in the near future.
When i got this game at its initial release, i was really pleasantly surprised: it was an hybrid game of RTS but not just that...
The whole concept was simple (capture key points on the battlefield) with whatever tools your character had at their disposal... but then, each map was also a giant puzzle on its own, because you had to figure out the best ways to conquer the key points despite cleverly deployed opposition and conditions.
Just add to that the fantastic soundtrack composed for this gam by AfroCelt Sound System band, and i was so immersed in my little battles for hours: trying out strategies, failing and learning from my failures, grasping whatever better strategies to use, watch all of my cute summoned creatures do their stuff.
I had so much fun for countless hours in early 2k's... I suppose what causes problem to get this gem on GOG would be the soundtrack licensing ? Otherwise it sure is not a hugely popular or well known title, more of a hidden gem in fact... But a good old game deserves to be protected and to become part of gaming legacy for the future...

Parasite Eve IIParasite Eve II is an action role-playing survival horror video game released exclusively for the PlayStation. The game was developed by Square and published in Japan in 1999 and in both North America and, unlike the previous game, in PAL regions in 2000. It is the sequel to Parasite Eve and the second game in the series of the same name.
Parasite Eve II is set several years after the events in the original game. The protagonist from the first game, Aya Brea, also features in this game as the playable character. She becomes involved with another outbreak of Mitochondrial creatures. Gameplay diverges from the previous game: battles take place in real time and the area of action is less restrictive. The approach is more typical of traditional survival horror games, although some role-playing elements are retained.Trending Action Horror Science fiction Survival
