Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Coming to PS4 and Xbone

Quote :

I’d like to start this out by thanking everyone who let us know how badly you wanted this game to come to North America. Ever since the original PlayStation Portable release in Japan, you guys have never given up on it, raising your voices in an effort to see this title come to North America and Europe. Well, I’m here to tell you that it’s coming and it’s going to be in HD.

Game is also coming out for the Xbone.

Another title for Lykos to add on the PS4 list ;-)

Yeah saw this earlier on Kotaku I had given up hope of every playing this game. It's on Xbone too.

Ah it is coming to Xbone as well? Will update the thread title. Thanks for the info.

God dammit, Padders!

Funny that Vita fans been begging for a port for a while now.

Cool. Good news to hear.

Oh well. English patch for the PSP version is nearly done. So fuck you Square Enix. I'm downloading your game.

I've been waiting to play Final Fantasy Type-0 for almost 9 years believe it or not.

Waiting is the most crucial part of wanting to play a Square Enix game.

there are three significant [graphical] improvements that have been propagated throughout the game.

The first is a broader color palette, which was introduced in order to bring it more in line with the upcoming Final Fantasy XV. The second is a new and improved lighting system, courtesy of DirectX 11. And lastly, changes have been made to the camera.

Quote :

The camera in Type-0 HD was initially criticised as unresponsive and claustrophobic, and would collide with the scenery. Those criticisms have been addressed now, as we can see from the below video demonstration put together by Tabata.

The camera has been pulled out farther, which lets players see more of their surroundings, and the issues with environmental geometry have been resolved.

Due to the higher aural fidelity possible with television, the game’s sound effects have been tweaked, too. More bass has been included in the game’s sounds than the PSP handheld could handle.

In addition to that, the original composer for the game, Takeharu Ishimoto, has returned to remaster his work. The original Type-0 soundtrack was recorded and mixed with the help of Sydney Opera House staff. Ishimoto has done the bulk of the remastering for the score on his own this time around; hopefully this will give it a more intimate feel.

The new version of the soundtrack also includes a new track by Ishimoto, and an English version of “Colorful Falling in Love”, which he says sounds more “grown-up” than the original, “girlish” one, thanks to the translation by SAWA, the Japanese techno-pop singer who is known for her work on The World Ends With You.

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD has no multiplayer, and its associated elements have either been removed or incorporated into the single-player experience. The game will be coming with four difficulty settings, including a new “Super Hard”, whereas the original had three.

Type-0 HD isn’t a true remastering but it is quite an improvement on the original, aesthetically, and this new, localized version will also let Westerners experience the game with English voice-overs. (It will have French and Spanish subtitles.)

Still just gonna play the PSP version. English patch is apparently really well done. Though I wanna play through Crisis Core again first.

I got this game when it came out but didn't beat it. PSP to PS4 is a really bad transition I'd say. The online version looks pretty boring too.
