==Cover artwork==
The Japanese, Korean and European (with the exception of Germany) versions of the game use the same artwork. In contrast to the Suikoden main titles which depict a huge selection of the cast on the front cover, only the main group consisting of the [[Hero (Suikoden Tierkreis)|hero]], [[Liu]], [[Marica]], [[Jale]] and Dirk is shown. The group is standing in front of what seems to be [[Flesaria Forest]]. The same artwork is used for the cover of the [[Gensosuikoden Tierkreis Official Standard Guide]].

The US cover is slightly different, using different poses for the characters and lacking Dirk, and is also set on a different background (presumably the [[Gateway]] in the [[Fortress Ruins]]). The German version features a different cover, with only the hero set against the background of the [[Citro Plains]].
