Is this also based on Geofront work?

I remember them doing that unofficially after the Zero Duology.

And it's another publisher. So Oath in Felghana is published by XSeed, Trails in the Sky Remake by Gungho, this one by refint/games (never heard of them) and current Falcom games by NISA. Such a mess lol

Tried to dig up some info and seems like this refint/games thing is basically Geofront's legal entity
Edit or maybe not lol, but in any case they are using Geofront's translation

Yup and except for the XSEED and NISA published games, the other ones don't seem to be coming to GOG.

Confirmed by Geofront. Official word is that they were approached by refint/games for rights to the translation.

This is a pretty obscure release that the publisher seems to be going the extra mile for (implementing rollback netcode on top of everything else listed in the OP). The optimist in me hopes this means that Geofront's other pet projects - Dinosaur Resurrection and The White Witch - see the light of day in an official capacity too... whenever they see the light of day at all. (Last I checked on discord, one of the team members on the project said Dinosaur is very far along)
