Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars Batoteiros

If you're craving a little extra power (or a lot), third-party cheat tools make tinkering with Suikoden I & II HD Remaster shockingly easy. Tools like Cheat Engine and WeMod crank the experience up to 11 with features that range from unlimited health (so bosses can't even scratch you), one-hit kills, infinite Potch for all your shopping sprees, rapid leveling for the impatient, and item duplication for when you just need “one more” of everything.

WeMod's trainer comes loaded with 26 built-in cheats for both games, including toggling god mode, fast-forwarding or slowing down the action, status effect erasers, EXP and Potch multipliers, and more. Cheat Engine is a bit more hands-on: download a pre-made table, load it up after launching your game, and hotkey away to real-time upgrades.

Messing with these does risk the satisfaction of classic gameplay challenges (and you’ll want to safeguard your save files), but hey, sometimes you just want to unleash chaos or skip the grind.

After hours of world map trekking, unlocking fast travel feels like a gift from the developers. Here’s how to make it happen: In Suikoden II, Viki auto-joins after the Greenhill events and just hands you the Blinking Mirror—fast travel unlocked, minimal fuss. In Suikoden I, recruit Hellion first, found zipping around near Kaku Village, then connect the dots for mirror-based teleport magic a little later.

• Recruit Roc early in Suikoden II to immediately activate headquarters item storage.
• Want extra EXP or Potch? Slap Fortune or Prosperity Runes on your party once merchants like Jeane or Vahn are on board—it multiplies your battle spoils, no grind required.

Suikoden II holds onto a truly wild legacy Easter egg for the die-hards: if, during Jowy and Riou’s escape from North Window, you somehow win 108 battles in a row against Highland soldiers before making the big river jump, you'll unlock a fully colorized version of the iconic sepia intro movie. Not for the faint of heart, but definitely a flex. You’ll know you’ve pulled it off when you hit Level 11 or manage to amass a tiny fortune.

On the hunt for other fun interactions? Double back to the northern path in Tenzan Pass early on to earn a hidden conversation about Nanami’s legendary (maybe not for the best) cooking. Bringing familiar faces like Flik and Viktor when introducing Hix and Tengaar changes up the dialogue, and if you’re clever enough to recruit Mukumuku in Kyaro before most players, you’ll get a surprise when you reach your castle later.

If you remember breaking into Matilda Kingdom early via the border gate exploit—sorry, that sneaky trick's been patched in the remaster. The classic shortcut for skipping storyline roadblocks isn’t coming back, so you’ll have to progress the regular way for now. On the bright side, the main quest still has plenty of ways to stretch your strategic muscles!

Snagging certain characters early makes life a whole lot smoother in both games. In Suikoden II, get Roc on your side as soon as possible by catching him in Muse Mansion after the infiltration mission. He’s the key to unlocking headquarters item storage—which you’ll thank yourself for later. Over in Suikoden I, keep an eye out for Viki stumbling around near the Kaku Village or Lakewest Castle gates; her blinking magic is your ticket to surprisingly convenient fast travel later via Blinking Mirror.

• Manual saves are your lifeline. Recruiting rare or time-sensitive characters (like Gilbert) means you don’t want to get locked out by an unlucky dialogue choice.
• Instead of splurging on new gear, try investing in weapon upgrades at blacksmiths—the returns are usually better.
• Don’t underestimate unite attacks, especially against bosses that crumble under multi-hit barrages. Sometimes friendship really is magic.

Trophy hunters, listen up: Nabbing that platinum in Suikoden I & II HD Remaster means checking off everything on a hefty list—about 56 achievements spanning both games. Some standouts include keeping Jowy loyal to the bitter end to earn "True Friendship" in Suikoden II, and rounding up all the Stars of Destiny before the final showdown for "Liberator" in Suikoden I.

• Master Chef (Suikoden II): You’ve got to win all of Hai-Yo’s cook-offs before Chapter 4 hits. Get cooking, fast.
• War Historian (Suikoden I): This one asks you to trigger every optional dialogue during war battles, so don’t just mash through the tactical scenes.

Careful planning, lots of saves, and a heads-up checklist will save you from replaying the saga just for a single overlooked trophy.
