This is all I wanted for VII. You fans of tactics are lucky.

**Final**ly

I'm loving the 7 remakes and super looking forward to this!

Original VII is great how it is. I was happy to have an alternate telling for the remakes. Unlike VII, VIII has always been ugly and needs a graphical upgrade to match their over ambitious models for the hardware. Also needs a combat overhaul so it's not so super easy, and draw is not so tedious. Tactics original is pretty, but could use some QoL updates.

VA sound amazing!

Hoping this includes a PC release that isn't a year+ behind consoles

It'll probably come with Denuvo anyway.

> VIII has always been ugly I don't agree with this. It definitely wasn't considered ugly back when it was new. In fact, I believe the *over ambitious models for the hardware* as you put them were considered a big improvement compared to VII's.

doesn‘t matter

DON'T FUCK IT UP

Agreed. To me, VII was always the ugly one in the series. Unfortunately I played VIII first and was blown away at the technical marvel the game is. Afterwards I played VII as a kid and it was unplayable. It felt like playing with cheap, homemade, wooden dolls. It was always the game that needed a remake the most.

I’m with you. All I wanted for 7 was a graphical update and instead you got alternate dimensions bullshit.

I think the battle sprites look amazing, but in the field, the details on the models get squished into too few pixels, and it's a jarring juxtaposition against the beautiful pre-rendered backgrounds. I can remember some reviewers sharing my opinion at the time, but you might be right that calling it ugly is a bit much.

I can't help but be excited for this. Here's hoping it gets ported to pc eventually.

The post link only mentions PS5, but the Square Enix page says consoles and Steam. Steam page doesn't seem to exist yet, though. https://www.square-enix-games.com/en_US/news/final-fantasy-tactics-the-ivalice-chronicles

It's coming out on Steam on September 30th according to the Square Enix page! https://www.square-enix-games.com/en_US/news/final-fantasy-tactics-the-ivalice-chronicles

Sick! I remember it being fun, but never having the time to finish it. Maybe this is my chance.

Hope they get the sound right this time. And fix the effects slowdown glitch. And don’t introduce new weirdness.

Same. I found a way to soft lock myself into (one of?) the final boss fights and then my PS2 laser failed. Loved the game though and been looking forward to playing again for like 20 years.

Already confirmed on the Steam page
