Square Enix announced Final Fantasy Resonance, the first mainline entry in the franchise to use the HD-2D art style. The game launches on consoles and PC.
Final Fantasy Resonance marks a significant visual shift for the long-running RPG series. The HD-2D aesthetic—a blend of pixel art and modern 3D effects popularized by games like Octopath Traveler and Triangle Strategy—gives the game a distinct retro-modern appearance.
The title joins a growing list of major releases adopting the HD-2D style, which has proven commercially successful. Square Enix's Octopath Traveler franchise and Triangle Strategy demonstrated strong player interest in the visual approach.
Final Fantasy Resonance will release across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. Additional details about gameplay, story, and release date remain undisclosed. The announcement signals Square Enix's willingness to experiment with established franchises through alternative art directions.
PlayStation's latest update automatically enables PSSR 2.0 for PS5 Pro owners across supported games, eliminating the need to manually toggle the upscaling feature.
Bungie announced plans to restore previously removed Destiny 2 content including campaigns, destinations, and raids. The move reverses the controversial Destiny Content Vault system implemented six years ago that deleted paid player experiences.
