• License Reset Function: By talking to Clan Centurio's leader Montblanc in Rabanastre, players can reset and change their party member's jobs, allowing them to customize the jobs of their party as desired.
• Additional Gambit Sets: Gambits allow players to customize their party's AI. Players can now create three unique sets, allowing players to switch between sets for different situations, such as map exploration or boss fights.
• Improved "New Game+": Allows users to start the game with party members at level 90 and carry over some items like weapons, magic and gils obtained during previous playthroughs.
• Specific to Xbox One X: Supports 60fps

New official art

Edit 2: If you want to check out what the game is about, the trailer linked below are much better. The new trailer doesn't make sense for someone who hasn't played the game

Spoiler: Trailers

 

[Dreamboum]

New art to be added (reversible cover I think) on top of the existing Yoshida art for first print run. FF12 receives the golden treatment

 

[Remark]

OKAY

OKAAAAAAAAAAAY

(i might have to cop on Xbox)

 

[Comic Obsessed]

REALLY hope the reversible cover is the same as the Japanese one.

EDIT: Wait, I think it is.

 

[Thoraxes]

As long as they don't spring a mandatory download on us for the Switch version, I'm in for this. Glad we're getting that cover too.

 

[Izanagi89]

Needs a hard mode -_-

 

[Rotobit]

I'm still miffed at the suggestion that Square Enix really is going to keep this new content exclusive to the latest ports for no good reason. First Dragon Quest XI, and now, potentially, this.

It just seems money grubby, anti-consumer and obnoxious. We live in an age of patches, there's no excuse.

 

[ryushe]

Job reset is crazy.

 

[e1it3g4m3r]

Cool, might pick up on Xbox. Any word on if the physical will need to connect to internet to play or is one of those install and done games?

 

[ezekial45]

Will these be added into the PC and PS4 releases?

 

[Fortinbras]

Nice. 60 fps for Xbox.

 

[jon bones]

i wish square treated all ff remasters this well

 

[cucholix]

nvm

 

[The Last One]

OMG they NEED to add a patch for 60fps on PS4 PRO and PC.

 

[Deleted member 7051]

So they're not patching the PS4 version with this stuff too?

 

[h3ro]

Job Reset and 60fps is probably going to get me to rebuy on Xbox One X. I've only gone mid way through on my Ps4 Pro play through so I don't mind restarting.

 

[Bane]

Huh, I'll wait to see how the performance for XBX actually turns out. If it's a good improvement I'll ditch my PS4 copy for that.

It's almost like a business wants you to spend twice as much money on a product.

 

[Deleted member 1003]

Will these be added into the PC and PS4 releases?

Click to shrink...

I certainly hope so.

 

[Deleted member 1589]

You fuckers are making me buy it again on the Switch aren't you?

Jokes on you SE, I'm all in day one

 

[Rotobit]

It's almost like a business wants you to spend twice as much money on a product.

Click to shrink...

Well... Yeah. That doesn't mean I can't speak out against it?

 

[Deleted member 8001]

This is awesome.

 

[Keym]

But can you switch between all THREE OSTs like in the PS4 version??

edit: nevermind it's probably there, the steam version also has it. Rip PS4/PC version.

 

[runlikehell]

Really hope there is a patch for PS4, it'd be a bit of a piss take if there wasn't!

 

[RROCKMAN]

Oh wow I feel like an idiot for buying this on PS4


But Job Reset and item carryover is enough for me to triple dip can actually play through the game and expirement with multiple builds on the same playthrough.

Guess I'll just sell my ps4 version.

 

[VariantX]

Guess I'm picking this up for switch since I don't have an XB1X. Wanted an opportunity to replay this game and now I got a vastly improved version of it over the PS2 original.

 

[SirKai]

i wish square treated all ff remasters this well

Click to shrink...

Best FF deserves the best.

Also yes Square, please at least patch in the NG+ mode into the PS4 and PC versions!

 

[Relix]

I will buy again on Switch. It's perfect for it.

 

[burgerdog]

Damn why you gotta do this, buying on x.

 

[cucholix]

I'm worried about compresion in the Switch version tbh, the game is barely 12gb :/

 

[Necromorph]

Time to throw to the trash the PS4 version.

 

[Rosur]

tempting to double dip for the job resets and 60fps on the X. (never finished my PS4 playthrough).

 

[Dancrane212]

That's real sharp. Pleasantly surprised there is an uncapped FPS option.

 

[DNAbro]

I guess i'll Finally buy this game on Switch. Also I'm guessing they still haven't patched IX's music bug?

 

[The Pharmercy]

OMG they NEED to add a patch for 60fps on PS4 PRO and PC.

Click to shrink...

...it is 60fps on pc tho?

 

[Hutchie]

Switch price guys???

 

[Dreamboum]

You can change boards by talking to Montblanc, no fees apparently.

3 sets of gambits you can change to in the menu

You apparently carry over everything in NG+, here's the first boss getting blasted

OMG they NEED to add a patch for 60fps on PS4 PRO and PC.

Click to shrink...

It's already 60 FPS on PC, but yeah on PS4 Pro would be nice.

 

[Deleted member 18161]

Well... Yeah. That doesn't mean I can't speak out against it?

Click to shrink...

I never said you couldn't... I agree with you lol.

 

[Prophet Five]

ugh, guess I'll buy it AGAIN on XBX

 

[ActStriker]

Holy shit, job reset.

 

[SPRidley]

So, if my favourite Final Fantasy game is IX becuase of characters, story, music and world (and same stuff why I love games like XBC2) will I like this game?
Ive heard terrible things about the later part of the game, about it not feeling finished becuase the original director died, but at the same time every time I see images or a trailer it feels interesting.

 

[Tbm24]

Damn I was super deadset on the switch version for portability but 60fps on One X? That's really fucking tempting.

 

[Terror-Billy]

Yeeeees! I was totally buying this on XB1X but this is great news.

 

[Deleted member 12352]

Will these be added into the PC and PS4 releases?

Click to shrink...

Can't think of a good reason why they wouldn't be. God knows when it'll happen though.

 

[Deleted member 4262]

Already platinum'd it on PS4 and bought the PC version recently, but I'll buy it again on Switch because it's that good.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Weird trailer.....but I'm so in for the Switch version. It's been a long wait.

 

[Rotobit]

I never said you couldn't... I agree with you lol.

Click to shrink...

Oh sorry, haha. Just used to a lot of other threads where that thinking is used as a defense.

 

[BlackManLovesKUF]

While it doesn't offer the flexibility of the original, kudos to Square for addressing one of my main criticisms of locking you into jobs. Will definitely be purchasing on Xbox.

 

[GET2DAACHOPPAAAA]

In for the 60fps

 

[Martl]

Hopefully this updates also coming to existing remastered versions. With DQ11 now the second SE game in a row where buying first means getting the worse version.
