Final Fantasy VIII Remastered is coming really soon

Like in less than a month

One of the big announcements from Square Enix at E3 this year was the reveal of Final Fantasy VIII Remastered. With the rest of the PlayStation and PlayStation 2 era Final Fantasy games getting remade, remastered, and re-released, it was the odd-man-out and some thought –for whatever various reasons they found on the internet — that it simply wouldn’t get the same treatment.

Thankfully, Square Enix found a way to do it and you’ll be able to enjoy the fruits of its labor soon enough as the publisher announced today a release date for the game. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered will release on Switch, Steam, PS4, and Xbox One on September 3, 2019. It will retail for $19.99.

#FinalFantasy VIII returns as FINAL FANTASY VIII Remastered featuring new graphical enhancements and a whole host of options to customize your gameplay experience! Coming to #PS4, #NintendoSwitch, #Xbox One, and #Steam on September 3.
