Vantage Master

A sequel, Vantage Master V2, was released in 1998, featuring new maps and adjusted character balance but an unchanged overall game design.

The game is played on a hex grid map with different types of terrains which affect the gameplay.

Free Battle allows the player to configure all settings including masters, stats, Natials, magics and the map.

Otherwise, the game is essentially a complete 3D clone of the original Vantage Master with remastered music and gameplay.

[citation needed] A sequel, VM Japan, subtitled Vantage Master – Mystic Far East, was released in 2002 for the PC and later for the Playstation 2; it changed the setting to feudal Japan and featured different Natials, more differences between masters, a deeper story mode, and improved graphics.
