Comparing Final Fantasy 9 Remake to Crisis Core: A Rumored Reunion
Square Enix is reportedly working on a full remake of Final Fantasy 9, set for a 2024/2025 launch. The remake is expected to retain the original game's charm and features, with a rejuvenated ATB turn-based battle system and the return of the "Trance" system. While it won't be on the same scale as the Final Fantasy VII Remake, it aims to capture the elements that made FF9 beloved. The game's unique aesthetic and memorable characters, along with Nobuo Uematsu's iconic soundtrack, are expected to be preserved. A release date has not been announced.
