"Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles is burdened by the unenviable task of trying to improve upon a masterpiece while not adding any new imperfections. Based on nearly an hour I spent playing it at a recent demo event, it mostly succeeds on both counts. The magic of the PS1-era Square Enix classic is mostly preserved, now buoyed by HD graphics, voice acting, and modern gameplay refinements."
"Out September 30 on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC, Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles takes players into a tactical RPG about navigating a world cleaved apart by war, ideology, and monsters. It's one of the most grounded stories in the Final Fantasy franchise with characters fighting about the politics of class and privilege, while still delivering a magic-infused epic about demonic foes and powerful crystals."
Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles preserves the PS1-era game's core tactical combat while adding HD graphics, voice acting, and gameplay refinements. The remaster releases September 30 on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The game presents a grounded political story about war, class, privilege, ideology, demonic foes, and crystals. Gameplay alternates between dramatic story scenes and grind-based battles that emphasize customized units and strategic positioning reminiscent of Chess and D&D. The release offers two modes: an original-gameplay version using the War of the Lions localization and an enhanced version with an updated script. A third option preserving the original PS1 Western translation is not included.
