Final Fantasy Tactics Poll

Many have called it the most influential strategy RPG of all time... and now, decades removed from its original PS1 debut, Final Fantasy Tactics has returned.

And according to reviews, it's a glorious comeback. The Ivalice Chronicles isn't some kind of ground-up remake, but it is a very carefully considered remaster, packing new quality of life upgrades and various other enhancements in a bid to be called the definitive experience.

We're glad that Square Enix has (quite clearly) taken its time with this project. Amongst Final Fantasy titles, Tactics has always been one of the most respected instalments — a true classic, by almost all accounts. And so the long-awaited remaster had to get it right.

"The Ivalice Chronicles is so close to being the definitive way to play what remains a masterful game to this day," is what we wrote in our Final Fantasy Tactics PS5 review, awarding the revival an 'excellent' 9/10.

"Square Enix's unfortunate decision to axe content introduced in The War of the Lions stings, but if you can get past that, the raft of quality-of-life improvements, additions, and upgrades make it a fantastic way to revisit, or experience for the first time, one of the most influential video games ever made."
