Legend of Mana and the Trials of Mana remake from Square Enix have been released on GOG

GOG has quietly expanded its lineup of Japanese RPGs. Square Enix uploaded two cult classics to the store DRM-free: Legend of Mana (remaster) and a full 3D remake, Trials of Mana. Both entries have been added to the GOG Preservation Program — meaning GOG's team will actively patch and adapt them as Windows updates land and as new CPU/GPU generations show up (e.g., future OS/driver changes), rather than leaving the files to rot.

The launch was paired with a themed Square Enix sale, so the new releases are available with noticeable discounts for a limited time. For PC players who prefer to actually own their copies and avoid constant online checks or DRM clients, this is a practical win — though some users may still grumble about port oddities or control quirks.
