The first HD-2D game in the FINAL FANTASY series, FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE is a celebration of classic and modern FINAL FANTASY that evokes the beloved titles of yesteryear. This tale of Crystals features a strategic turn-based battle system with a modern twist, the return of chocobos, espers and airships, in addition to appearances from beloved FINAL FANTASY characters such as Cloud, Tidus and the Warrior of Light – all presented in stunning, retro-inspired HD-2D graphics that push the limits of pixel art. FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE is based on the first story arc of the mobile game FINAL FANTASY BRAVE EXVIUS. Far from just a direct port, it has been refined and extensively rebuilt as a full-fledged console-quality RPG experience.
FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE will be available for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, XBOX Series X|S, PC via Steam and XBOX on PC on Oct. 22, 2026. Pre-orders are now available for all platforms.
