EightBound Regal is an ‘remaster’ of the original Final Fantasy / EarthBound crossover hack by Poliynm and Mareeta. Regal was created in response to complaints about the game being ‘too difficult’.

EightBound was a hack that brought Final Fantasy characters, abilities, conventions, and challenges to the world of EarthBound. For more information, see EightBound’s page here: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4874/.

Regal aims to offer a ‘brand new’ way to experience the classic EightBound story! New features of EightBound include:

- Cheat protection has been removed

- Significantly lowered encounter rates

- A faster adventure that doesn’t waste more of your oh-so precious time

- A never-before-seen story arc

- New characters

- New abilities

- New bosses

- A revamped interface

Polinym wishes to apologies to all the pain he’s caused players of the original EightBound. He hopes that this hack will allow you to live in a world without strife that you deserve. You don’t need to strive for greatness. Play EightBound Regal, then you won’t need to suffer for anything anymore.
