Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster Review
Square Enix concludes the Pixel Remaster project with the release of Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster. Can the nostalgia hold up in this definitive version of a Super Nintendo classic?
Final Fantasy VI
(NB: 2022 release is Pixel Remaster version that replaced previous versions) Long ago, the War of the Magi reduced the world to a scorched wasteland, and magic simply ceased to exist. 1000 years have passed… Iron, gunpowder, and steam engines have been rediscovered, and high technology reigns… But there are some who would enslave the world by reviving the dread destructive force known as “magic.” Can it be that those in power are on the verge of repeating a senseless and deadly mistake?
