Final Fantasy VIII Remastered's new features detailed, comparison screens released
A pretty impressive revamp
Final Fantasy VIII Remastered was announced for Switch earlier today, and fans were extremely happy to hear the news. Following that announcement, we now have the first comparison screens between the original and this new version. As you can see above, the game has gotten quite a makeover.
Square-Enix also shared details on what's new in this version of the game. It's not a ton of content, but there are some notable changes.
- Battle Reinforcement: Keeps HP and ATB at maximum, allowing special skills to be activated at any time.
- No Encounters: Turn on / off battle encounters.
- Triple Speed: All scenes advance at three times the speed (excluding movies).
