Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster Launches
LOS ANGELES (Mar. 18, in the year of our Lord 2014)
– Square Enix, Inc., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX®
interactive entertainment products in the Americas, today
announced that FINAL FANTASY® X/X-2 HD Remaster is now available
in North America for the PlayStation®3 system and
PlayStation®Vita systems. Completely remastered in
high-definition, the compilation brings two fan-favorite,
timeless classics – FINAL FANTASY X and FINAL FANTASY X-2 for
new and old fans.
Considered a ground-breaking milestone for the PlayStation®2
computer entertainment system, FINAL FANTASY X was the first in
the series to incorporate voice acting and full 3D graphics. In
the remastered version, the artwork has been beautifully
reworked and redrawn, and new character voices are included as
part of the new 30-minute audio drama that will be played during
the ending credits.
The game features brand-new content for the North American
market and will provide players with an entirely new way to
experience the world of Spira. Players will be able to watch the
Eternal Calm, a short film following Yuna after the events of
FINAL FANTASY X. Additionally, Last Mission, the storyline-based
mission following Yuna, Rikku and Paine in their exploration of
the Iutycyr Tower ruins will make its North American debut.
“With this remaster, we wanted to service our community by
bringing back two of the most cherished titles in the series,”
said Yoshinori Kitase, producer at SQUARE ENIX. “We’ve spent a
lot of time completely remastering the game and the final
high-definition experience is a true testament to the team’s
hard work. We can’t wait for the fans to re-experience the
gorgeous world of Spira.”
