Many of the folk behind Tactics Ogre left Quest and joined Square to make Final Fantasy Tactics, which explains the two games being so similar. Due to the similarities between the two games, many assumed that Tactics Ogre was a clone of Final Fantasy Tactics, but Tactics Ogre actually came first. It was too little too late, though, because North America had already gotten Final Fantasy Tactics by that point, which many regard as superior. The game was originally a Japan only release until the PlayStation version, which finally got a localized North American release in 1998. Both the Saturn and PlayStation release feature a remastered soundtrack, but are basically the same as the original game. It later got ported to the Sega Saturn in 1996 and Sony PlayStation in 1997. Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together is a 2-D, isometric tactical role-playing game developed by Quest and originally released for the Super Famicom in 1995.
