Are there more shots out for this then? I've not been able to see much of the new models so far so it's hard to make a judgement on them.

With fully overhauled visuals, see your favorite characters come to life like never before! FINAL FANTASY VIII Remastered is an RPG, available in English and Japanese voiceover, and is also text localized into French, Italian, German and Spanish.


I think it's unlikely the whole game could be voiced. But I can see certain cutscenes and in game battle having voice acting. Hoping they do a proper casting for characters because I'm not a fan of Squall's current VA. No disrespect to his work but he makes Squall sound like he's 30.

It's still not officially confirmed. Just text found from Square Enix's site for the game. But yes, the prospect of voice over really is pretty cool. I'm happy this remaster is getting treated with a little extra care than a simple port. Time will tell with how much more stuff is being added or updated.

This just makes me think people will buy VIII Remaster just for a demo and barely play the game itself which upsets me. But a sale is a sale which only supports the game so I guess it's still a win >,>

I love VIII but even I would put the demo on first if this was true

I'm already set with getting it on Switch and PC so it's out of the question of me anyhow.

You can play Triple Triad on your phone. There is a free app for it from SE. Easily the best bit of FF8.

Now prepare for the trophy/achievement for getting all cards for the mini game or beat all the secret players.

Love that part. Might need to brush up on it as its been over a decade since my last playthrough.

I plan to get both Switch and PC. PC mainly for the inevitable mods that will come. Seeing some of the incredible stuff people have done with the original gets me hyped to see what they could potentially do with the remaster.

Not too bad. Just best all of the CC group, play a game and lose a rare card.

The CC group locations isn’t easy, and I think you have to beat them in order. Having rare cards will help a lot, but missing a previous player could lock out the rest, if I remember correctly.

It's £15.99 for PS4 and Switch.

A fairer price than the £50-55 some predicted.

Can't see me resisting for long at that price!

Grab your GFs, draw some spells and polish up on your junctioning because it's nearly time to spread some SeeDs!

Did not realise this was coming so soon, looking forward to this! Haven’t decided whether to get on Steam or XB1 yet

In other news, FF IX could do with your help in the eliminator thread! :shifty:
