Oh, and one more great, tiny fix: The opening credits appear during the march on Narshe in Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster once more, after not appearing in the initial release. Additionally, the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series is receiving a bunch of new features, including the option of a new pixel-based font (in addition to the hideous default font), the option to switch between the new and original soundtracks, the ability to completely turn off random encounters, and the option to boost experienced gained by upward of four times if desired. For some reason, it even announced a specific time it will become available: 11 a.m.

If just the games weren’t enough, there is also a special collector’s edition that includes the following:įINAL FANTASY I-VI COLLECTION – physical collection of all games for either PS4 or Nintendo Switch-Ī bonus lenticular sleeve for the game package.Ģ-disc vinyl record set featuring newly arranged game music with exclusive cover artwork by Kazuko ShibuyaĪ specially compiled artbook showcasing beautiful character pixel art.Įight stylized pixel art character figures in window packaging.Square Enix has announced a final release date of Apfor the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series (meaning FF1, FF2, FF3, FF4, FF5, and FF6) on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 (PS4). With the 16th installment coming soon to PS5 (also exclusive), not many titles can sport the history that Final Fantasy has. They are very good games and ones that set the tone for over 30 years of gaming in a franchise. The remaster is already currently on Steam as well as Android and Apple mobile devices, so Xbox will be the only major player left out here. While IV included the addition of the Active Time Battle with turn based combat on the SNES, the voice acting inclusion in X for the first time truly made it stand out.Īnother thing to take the pulse on is how the collection is yet another example of skipping Xbox consoles by Square Enix. It’s also the second best game in the franchise after Final Fantasy X. It was released as Final Fantasy 2 in the US for the SNES system. For example, many may not remember (unless you’re old like me) that Final Fantasy IV is the Japanese number.

With six games in the collection, however, there are a number of things to reflect back on. Now, that’s a hefty price for games that are going to be 30 years old, especially considering collections like Capcom Arcade come in at around $30.

The bundled price will be $74.99, while the individual prices are going to be $15.99 per game. The titles will be available via a bundle as well as separately. Square Enix has officially announced that the pixel remasters for Final Fantasy I – VI are going to be released on PS4 and Switch this Spring.
