Coincidentally, the PC version offers partial controller support, begging the question of why the mobile versions do not offer similar support when they are priced the same. Like the previous five pixel remasters, you have to use the touchscreen for all controls. But here's the thing, Square hasn't all of a sudden turned a new leaf, and so the latest and greatest Final Fantasy VI also suffers from a few issues.įirst and foremost, even though Final Fantasy VI was designed to be played with a physical controller, there's no controller support in the Android version. Like the previous pixel remasters, Final Fantasy VI offers new pixel art that suits modern screen ratios while still looking close to the original game.

We finally have something on Android that looks much closer to the original SNES game after all these years of mediocrity. Let's also not forget that the last Final Fantasy VI title on Android offered horrible art that replaced the original pixel graphics, which is why today's release is important. Of course, VI is heralded by fans as one of the best JRPGs ever made, and so today's launch is an important one, especially since the release was already delayed once. Only the first six games in the series have been remade as pixel remasters, and today marks the launch of the last in the group, Final Fantasy VI. And so the company recently set out to recreate its classics for the umpteenth time, and these are the recent pixel remasters that have been landing on Android, iOS, and PC since July, coincidentally the same month the old mobile ports disappeared from the Play Store.

These ports weren't that great, to begin with, with missing features and letterboxed/pillarboxed graphics that didn't fit modern screens. Square Enix doesn't have the best track record on mobile, thanks to the company letting many of its premium games languish without updates for years, including its old Final Fantasy titles.
