Square Enix has announced that the highly anticipated Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series will be launched on April 19 for PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Fans of the franchise have been eagerly waiting for an update on the release date, and this latest announcement has sent waves of exhilaration throughout the fandom.
Features of Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series
For those who are not familiar with what the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series has to offer, it provides remastered versions of the six original Final Fantasy games. These games have been updated with modernized UI, auto-battle functions, and rearranged soundtracks with original composer Nobuo Uematsu overseeing the process.
Players can switch between the original and rearranged soundtracks on the consoles and there is an option to turn off random encounters when exploring the map. Furthermore, there are boost features that speed up the amount of experience accumulated, making for faster and easier runs.
Adjustable settings provide up to four times the amount of experience gained, so you can configure the game to meet your needs. Additionally, there is an exciting new feature that allows players to switch between two different fonts. For those who were critical of the default font used during the PC and mobile launch, the pixel-based font will provide a more nostalgic gaming experience more in line with the original feel of the games.
You can purchase the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series as a bundle or individually. The Switch edition of the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster I-IV bundle is available for pre-order for $75, but the PS4 editions are not yet available for purchase. Square Enix has announced that it will release them on a later date.
Bonuses for Purchase
If you purchase the PS4 edition of the games, you will receive a theme and avatar along with your purchase. If you choose to purchase each game individually between April 20 and May 25, you will receive a theme and avatar for every game that you purchase during that time period. Those who purchase the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster I-IV bundle will receive six themes and six avatars in total, one for each title included in the bundle.
The Final Word
The release of the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series has been long-awaited by fans, and this announcement is being met with great enthusiasm. With updated graphics, enhanced gameplay, and countless options to customize your gaming experience, this series is shaping up to be the ultimate nostalgia trip for Final Fantasy aficionados.
