TearRing Saga: Berwick Saga (ティアリングサーガシリーズ ベルウィックサーガ), full title TearRing Saga Series: Berwick Saga: Lazberia Chronicle Chapter 174, is a game for the PlayStation 2 console. While it is officially the sequel to the original TearRing Saga: Utna Heroes Saga, the games are not significantly related by plot (taking place roughly a millennium apart on different continents) and the Berwick Saga battle and skill systems borrow significantly less from Fire Emblem than the Utna Heroes Saga battle and skill system did; because of this, the two games barely resemble each other in terms of gameplay.
