In a rather surprising announcement, Square Enix has announced that they’ll be bringing several classic Final Fantasy video games to Microsoft’s Xbox One consoles in the very near future.
It’s unclear if these re-releases will feature any visual or gameplay upgrades. Right now it looks as if these Xbox One releases will simply be identical versions of the games’ original releases. Here are the Final Fantasy video games confirmed for the Xbox One and their release date or window.
- Final Fantasy XV Pocket Edition HD: Already available on the Xbox One after launching last week.
- World of Final Fantasy Maxima: November 6th 2018
- Final Fantasy VII: 2019
- Final Fantasy IX: 2019
- Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster: 2019
- Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age: 2019
The exclusion of Final Fantasy VIII is particularly odd given that both VII, IX, and X made the list. It’s also rather strange given how many fans that particular game has.
Final Fantasy Chrystal Chronicles and Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon EVERY BUDDY! are also getting a re-release but will only be made available on the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 consoles. Final Fantasy VII, IX, X, and XII The Zodiac Age are however exclusive to Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch.
