Final Fantasy 12 Remaster's Release Date Announced

Why can't they bring it on PC aswell since Steam has the biggest Final Fantasy games collection than any console? Seriously who the hell even owns a PS4, only some teenage boys who fail at school while Steam is the biggest gaming network in the world and is used by everyone, its their best chance to maximize their profits.

Any word on a PC release?

I'm happy this game is coming out for ps4 finally, but its too bad they didn't make it a remake because there are a lot of things they could have fixed and added. The game has a great atmosphere at the start and as it goes along it gets more in-depth, but the story is way to lacking from the main character's point of view they could have done a lot better by fixing it up a bit and adding a few more things. Besides that the hunts are very well done and kind of blend in with the main story line unlike the latest ff15, but the other side quests are mainly there with the goal to get better weapons and items and don't tie into the story. I played the western version and found it very entertaining, although some people say having the same class for all your character's is what it ends being like they are wrong. Each of the characters have different stats and are better utilized as different roles which you can form yourself making it a very versatile game(for example vaan has the highest hp and is the 2nd fastest and does decent damage most people use him as a tank, basch hits the hardest making him your strongest weapon user, ashe is an all rounder since she is sort of the second main character as well and penelo and fran are better as healers with highest mp or ranged damagers). The international version basically makes the game a lot more challenging is all and adds some options to speed up the game when it gets boring(which tends to happen when your about 60% through the game the start of this game is where they went right it had a great atmosphere and was definitely an amazing game when it came out, but remastering it now when you have next gen games is redundant and obviously has been done because final fantasy has started to sell out since the lightning series). I will probably end up buying it because of the fact that this game was what got me hooked on final fantasy, but not till later when the price goes down as it is only worth about 20-30 bucks definitely not over that unless they remade it. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes an adventurous atmosphere in their game, all round great scenic value, interesting monsters and lore, fun bounty hunter quest lines that tie into the story, and a completely different battle style that is very involving and that you can modify in several ways. There are flaws in this game but every game has its flaws as for the story being lacking plot vice it has its charm in the sense that it lets the player use their imagination more and creates your own world which you can openly explore and enjoy. If this game hadn't come out less than a year of the ps3 coming out I believe it would have gotten a lot more attention and its getting its chance now but as I said they should have remade it slightly and fixed stuff cause we are in the next gen (cough sellouts, least work for maximum profit the Asian moto) back in the day these games were very innovative and fun but now final fantasy needs to step it up a bit more andtake risks(the lightning series was not a risk it was meant for the homo and chick fans it also had a horrible battle system which was overly rpg and gets put to shame by the ff12 battle system in my opinion) or they may lose a lot more fans.

Never played XII so I'll be picking this up to play after I clear my backlog of games. What I'm waiting on is the announcement of the PS4 port of my favorite FF series Final Fantasy 13. I love all three of 'em. And I will pre-order them the second I hear their available and play them for a 4th time to 100% completion. I hope they do a boss Collectors edition like the one the did for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. I would pay even $200+ for statuettes of the 3 versions of my Lightning in a collectors edition.

I think I rather snatch this up and play it on an PCSX2 instead

I remember not finishing this game on ps2 because I heard that in order to get the strongest weapons, you needed to ignore some chests in an area I already passed and wouldn't have passed on them.

Contemplated starting over but became disenchanted so I guess this is a good time to play it again.

What's the point of keeping a remaster exclusive?

As much as I liked 12, I don't think I will get it. I told myself I would never fight Yiazmat again.

What about including a port for revenant wings on disc?

Loved XII. Definitely a pick up. Still waiting to read if that 1-9 30th anniversary turns out to be true. Hoping it is.

The combat system looks much more intriguing than that of FFXV. I skipped FFXV for the shallow mess that it is and I think I'll get FFXII remaster instead.

I'm so looking forward to this, more than a few new releases to be honest.

Nice to know its released in the Summer, kind of miss playing RPG games during the Summer breaks when I was younger when both school and college were on break

Excited to replay this! My second favorite Final Fantasy behind VI (and barely above 9, for me).

I already played the HD version twice on pcsx2, I may buy this version as FF12 is my favorite in the series, but, if it's based on the inferior 'International Zodiac' version, then I'll pass on this one.

I didn't play 12 on PS2 so I will be picking this up. I hope they release 8 and 9 on PS4.

the best gamplay feature that i liked about this game was this that you can secure a dungeon room you are in by killing monsters.(which allows you to explore that room without the annoying/stressful encounter system)

Where is the official announcement?

Any chance this being released for PC as well?

Excellent game, I don't understand why Final Fantasy XII gets so much hate, it has one of the best stories in the series and most of the characters are interesting and not obnoxious like in XIII. Yes the gameplay is different but it's fun when you get used to it. I guess most people just aren't willing to try new things?

Well... they've remastered all the Final Fantasy's that actually made fans love the series... guess they'll start remastering the FFs that showed the decline of Square Enix as a JRPG studio...

yay

That's ok. Everyone missed this one, and from what I hear it's better that way.

I was hoping for a vita version :/

Take a look at the remaster in the video above? What video?
