Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles gameplay trailer debuts
Publisher Square Enix has uploaded the gameplay trailer for Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles to the company's YouTube channel. The remaster, slated for release on September 30th, introduces high-definition visuals and fully-voiced dialog.

Produced by Hironobu Sakaguchi and directed by Yasumi Matsuno, Final Fantasy Tactics debuted on the Sony PlayStation home console in 1997. The turn-based strategy title combines the monster design and job system from Final Fantasy series installments with the political intrigue and strategy gameplay of Tactics Ogre.

Final Fantasy Tactics Best Selection Vinyl Soundtrack is scheduled for release in October in Japan. The analog record release features fifteen selected music tracks with MP3 downloads, shipping from the Square Enix store for North America and Europe.


An enhanced port subtitled "The War of the Lions" launched on May 10th of 2007 in Japan, initially released for the PlayStation Portable console and ported more recently to iOS and Android devices.

The 50-track soundtrack, composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto and Masaharu Iwata, is streaming on Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited. The two-CD publication ships from the Square Enix store for North America, along with distributors CDJapan and Play-Asia.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles will launch for Xbox Series X|S, PS4 and PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 consoles, along with Windows through Steam.


From the Steam product page:
Ivalice—a kingdom blessed by the light of the gods and ruled by the Two-headed Lion. A year after her defeat to Ordallia in the Fifty Years' War, the king succumbed to malady, leaving a mere boy of two to ascend the throne.

Whoever was named regent would rule in truth, and thus emerged two rival candidates: dukes Goltanna and Larg, whose deeds during the war had earned them great renown. Goltanna the Black Lion and Larg the White Lion were destined to clash, and the resulting conflict would come to be known as the War of the Lions.

Against this backdrop appear Ramza, third son of House Beoulve, one of Ivalice's leading military families, and his childhood companion Delita, a commoner raised amongst nobles. As they endeavor to chart a course through this tumultuous age, a mighty current draws them ever closer to the abyss.
