Final Fantasy Resonance revives the retro RPG style of the SNES era

Square Enix is launching Resonance, a new Final Fantasy title that returns to the series' classic, old-school roots. The series has recently moved toward big blockbuster releases such as Final Fantasy XVI and the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, which play quite differently from the early games. The new game uses the HD-2D visual style, which blends detailed pixel art with 3D graphics, a look Square Enix has already applied to remakes of early Dragon Quest titles. The Verge reports that this week marks the release of the first HD-2D Final Fantasy game.
