The Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters reportedly heading to consoles

The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series has been available for some time, but only on PC and mobile platforms. However, that may soon change, as ESRB has recently rated the remasters for PlayStation and Switch consoles.

The ESRB listing found by VGC suggests the series will arrive on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch soon, but we're still unsure exactly when. With the Final Fantasy series celebrating its 35th anniversary on December 18th, we wouldn't be surprised if Square Enix decided to make an official announcement on this occasion.

The Final Fantasy I, II and III Pixel Remasters were the first to launch in July 2021. After that, the publisher gradually released Final Fantasy IV, V and VI. The first three games received good critics scores, with average scores surrounding 75-78 points out of 100. The remaining three were even better received by reviewers, with scores averaging 84-86 points.

For the Steam release, Square Enix offered a bundle with all six Final Fantasy games at a lower price, but each individual game can also be bought separately. Presumably, there will be a similar bundle offering on Switch and PlayStation.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
