The legacy Evercade cart making a comeback is the Piko Interactive Collection 1, and it includes a "fan favorite RPG"

The mystery Evercade cartridge set to ditch its legacy status is the Piko Interactive Collection 1, as Blaze has announced it's back in print. While the original compilation featured 20 classics, this edition knocks that number down to 19, but while the previously included shmup Magic Girl is now MIA, you're still getting a 40-hour Sega RPG alongside other excellent 16-bit capers.

That RPG is Brave Battle Saga, a turn-based RPG for the Sega Mega Drive that arrived in Asia back in 1996. In an announcement post, Blaze reveals that the "fan-favorite" outing will return as part of a 19-game collection housed in a clamshell case with new refreshed artwork. Losing Magic Girl, a vertical shooter with big anime vibes, is a bummer, but I suspect leaving it behind helped this re-release happen.
