Some Final Fantasy fans might be skeptical about the rerelease, due to the poor visual quality of past remasters. The iOS/Android version of the game has been criticized as being a bad, visually worse port. The Game Boy Advance version many years ago is considered by some as the best version of the game. The Steam edition’s price has not been announced, but both Final Fantasy VII andFinal Fantasy VIII cost $11.99 on the digital platform. Square Enix also announced a total Final Fantasy VII remaster earlier this year.
Final Fantasy VI will be available next Wednesday, December 15, on Steam.
