Final Fantasy Resonance was revealed during today's Nintendo Direct, and brings the HD-2D art style, popularized by the Octopath Traveler games , to Square Enix's flagship franchise. The game comes out October 22, and you can check out its reveal trailer below. While it looks like a completely new story to the unfamiliar, it's actually an adaptation of the story and world from the first arc of Brave Exvius, a Final Fantasy-themed mobile game that was shuttered last year. It brought players on a typical Final Fantasy adventure (complete with chocobos and airships), and included appearances from characters like Cloud, Tidus, and other iconic heroes from the series' history. In a press release about the game, however, Square Enix asserts that the experience is not quite a port or remaster. "Far from just a direct port, [Resonance] has been refined and extensively rebuilt as a full-fledged console-quality RPG experience," it reads. Our friends at IGN have played the game already, and clarify the difference a little further in their preview . While it was specifically announced in a Nintendo Direct, when Final Fantasy Resonance comes out on October 22, it will also be available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
