Also known as: スターオーシャン1, so1
The first game in the Star Ocean series, released in 1996 by tri-Ace but never localized to the west. First Departure is the 2008 PSP enhanced remake of the Super Famicom version. The gameplay greatly resembles what is seen in Tales Of Phantasia because most of the staff had left Namco after disagreements with Phantasia's development and formed tri-Ace to produce this game.
