The HD remake reimagines developer Quintet's Super Nintendo platformer, first published in 1990 by Enix. Renaissance alternates between 2D platforming, hack-and-slash gameplay segments and town-building simulation sequences. The game's score features fifteen new music tracks, as well as arranged compositions, by series composer Yuzo Koshiro.
A music player can be selected from the title screen, allowing for playback of all the "Classic" and "Remake" tracks after they are first encountered in the game. Actraiser's 16-bit Super Nintendo score is streaming on Apple Music, under the title "Yuzo Koshiro Best Selection, Vol. 1."
