After years of wondering, FFVIII is finally being remastered and releasing this year on PS4, Xbox One, Steam, and Switch!!!
• French developer Dotemu is assisting with the remaster.
• Most of the the original version’s development team is working on the remaster, including Director Yoshinori Kitase, Hiroshi Harada (battle programmer), Tomohiro Kayano (character models), and Tetsuya Nomura (character designer & battle visual director).
• Battle Assistance/Cheats (Max HP, Max ATB, etc.) will be present.
• Chocobo World will NOT be included. The items you could only obtain from it will be available through Rinoa’s Limit Break, Angelo Search.
• Although the remaster is being built upon the 2013 Steam release, which itself was a re-release of the 1999 PC port but with a few gameplay extras, it WILL implement the original PlayStation version’s music and not the PC’s poor quality midi music.
