If you just want to play the games without grinding and running into enemies while exploring, you can turn off random encounters. The console versions of the games will also give you the option to switch between the old and the rearranged soundtracks, as well as between the default font and a new pixel-based font designed to recreate the original gaming experience. Square Enix originally released the pixel perfect Final Fantasy remasters for the PC and mobile back in 2021 with new 2D graphics designed for HD displays, rearranged soundtracks and new gameplay features. All six games in the series - the first Final Fantasy, II, III, IV, V and VI - are hitting the PS4 and the Nintendo Switch that day, and you can either buy them in a bundle or individually get the ones you want to play.

Open your calendar app and drop a reminder with an alarm for that date if you've been waiting for the console versions of the Final Fantasy 'pixel perfect' remasters since Square Enix announced it in December last year.
