Final Fantasy Tactics is getting a remake in The Ivalice Chronicles

Remasters and remakes seem like they're a dime a dozen these days, but here's one I'm selfishly pretty stoked for. Square Enix announced during PlayStation's State of Play event that is revisiting the 1997 strategy RPG chapter from its famous franchise. Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles is due out on September 25, 2025 for both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.

This updated version of the turn-based strategy game introduces some welcome additions to the original. You'll find new graphics, an updated user interface and voiced dialogue in the enhanced version. It also brings some quality of life improvements, such as a more beginner-friendly Squire difficulty level. But if you want to immerse in the nostalgia and the challenge, you can swap back to the original graphics, gameplay and English translation. The original version also boasts a few modern upgrades, like an auto-save system.

As someone who has clocked several hundred hours in the Fire Emblem series, I've always had Final Fantasy Tactics hovering in my to-play queue. Whether you're a first-timer like me or are already well versed in the political intrigues of Tactics, this fall seems like an excellent change to check out the game.
