Final Fantasy Resonance devs publish video on HD‑2D approach

gamingJun 10, 202660888

Final Fantasy Resonance's developers published a video explaining the game's HD-2D approach, framing Resonance as an HD-2D Final Fantasy with a reworked story, world map, and gameplay changes. Creators are turning that announcement into illustrations, short comics, animatics, cosplay, quizzes, and preorder guides that emphasize its return to pure turn-based combat. Artwork and edits repeatedly spotlight Terra Branford, Tifa, and characters from the Brave Exvius roster as artists reimagine classic encounters and the new world map. Discussion threads and comparison charts focus on how Resonance's systems differ from past Final Fantasy turn-based and ATB designs.

[Interview] Final Fantasy Resonance devs say FFBE was “too good to become unplayable,” so it’s been reborn with a reworked story, world map, and enough changes to feel like a new game automaton-media.com/en/interview...

It's so weird that this game has a Keycard for the Switch 2 version yet has a Switch 1 version which is typically, the full game on the card. Honestly do I even need the Switch 2 version? Do I even need a performance boost if it's jsut a pixel RPG game?

Let me guess, there's no upgrade path through the Switch version.

Ok, this interview with the Final Fantasy Resonance directors makes me feel a lot more excited about the game, especially knowing that its virtually the same team behind Brave Exvius automaton-media.com/en/interview...

This was not on my radar but now it certainly is. I played FFBE for a bit but struggled to get into it due to the mobile aspects. Really looking forward to this now.

As if I needed an excuse to draw Tifa again, but the announcement of #FinalFantasyVIIRevelation gave me one anyway.

it is kinda funny that they call FF Resonance Final Fantasy's "classic" turn based system, because it's pure turn based, not ATB, there are only 4 purely turn based FF games in mainline

RESONANCE SCORE
You are someone for whom the journey was always the point. The throne was waiting.
The prophecy was waiting. The long dark was waiting, patient and absolute. So you to laugh at the bad photos. You chose to eat too much and chose to argue about camp food and let yourself be loved by people who refused to let you disappear. The king part was written before you were born. But the person-the one who let himself be known, be loved, be teased-that was yours. In the end, the person mattered more than the king. I'm glad I got to come with you guys. That was everything.

Final Fantasy Resonance seems to be the reason why Brave Exvius got shutdown. Resonance seems to have all the FFBE chars and probably a retelling. I just hope my dear King Behemy is in the game. I miss him so... 🥺
