Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection Retail Release Announced

Square Enix announced a new retail release for its Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster collection. The Anniversary Edition release contains the Pixel Remaster versions of all six titles — Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy III, Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy V, and Final Fantasy VI — on PlayStation 4 (playable on PlayStation 5) or Nintendo Switch as well as an exclusive sticker sheet. It is available to pre-order now from selected retailers for $74.99 and will release on October 8, 2024.

The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster titles were originally released for PC (via Steam), iOS, and Android before later coming to PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. The collection did previously receive a physical release, but this was exclusive to Square Enix’s online stores and quickly sold out. The PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch versions include additional features including being able to choose between rearranged and original soundtracks, as well as between a new pixel-based font and the font used on the PC, iOS, and Android releases. There are also new gameplay boost features, such as switching off random encounters and applying experience multipliers from 0x to 4x.
