A Final Fantasy Tactics Remake Might Also Be Coming In The Future

FF Tactics Might Need A Remake More Than FF9

It ’s enough to know that anFF9remake is total , even if it is far in the future . But perhaps more excitingly , Nate The Hate also claims that there ’s aFinal Fantasy Tacticsremake in the whole shebang , too . This has also been rumour for quite some meter , and is arguablyFF9is one of my favorites in the serial publication , but I ’d rather seeTacticsremade ( or at least remastered ) first for one dewy-eyed reason : it ’s not available on most modern platforms .

If I wanted to , I could purchase and playFF9on PS5 , PC , Switch , or even Xbox today . But if I want to playTactics , I could only download it on my smartphone , and that ’s far from ideal . I ’d screw to be capable to play an HD adaptation on the large screen , or even take it on the go with a Switch or Steam Deck - compatible version . Still , I ’d be just as thrilled for aFinal Fantasy 9remake , especially if it preserved the original turn - based scrap - it ’s just a matter of what Square Enix decide to put out first .
