Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters Get Switch & PlayStation Release Window
Square Enix confirmed when they will finally be releasing the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster collection for both Nintendo Switch and PlayStation. The company already released all six games individually through Steam over the course of 2022, bringing the classic '80s and '90s titles with full translations over to a modern platform for you to experience. Now those six titles will be sold as a complete collection for both platforms sometime in the Spring of 2023. But they're not being sold alone! As you can see here in the promo image below, you'll be able to snag a special 35th Anniversary Edition for both consoles, which comes with an array of items for you to enjoy. Including an art book, figurines, a vinyl soundtrack, a special anniversary box, and more. This special version is only going to be printing a limited number of copies, which they are currently selling for pre-order on their website for $75 apiece.
