Final Fantasy VIII Remastered – New PS4 Games (September 2019)
Over the past few years, Final Fantasy VIII sat in silence while practically every other Final Fantasy game got a remaster or update in some way. Well, it’s finally time for VIII to shine with a nicely updated and remastered version of the game.
The biggest change to the game is completely remastered character models. Gone are the muddy mannequins of the past, replaced with high-quality models that have defined features.
Past the visual upgrade, a handful of helpful options will be included like a 3x fast-forward option, combat assist to max out HP and ATB, and the ability to completely turn off random encounters.
Final Fantasy VIII may not get the recognition that its predecessor does, but by all regards its still an all-time classic JRPG. This update looks like its only making that classic even better.
