Final Fantasy Tactics returns with enhanced features for Nintendo Switch 2

The iconic game FINAL FANTASY TACTICS has been re-released as The Ivalice Chronicles for the Nintendo Switch 2. Set in the medieval kingdom of Ivalice, players navigate a rich story filled with political intrigue and warfare following the death of a king. Two dukes, Goltanna and Larg, vie for power in a conflict known as the War of the Lions. Players will guide characters through strategic turn-based battles, utilizing diverse terrains for victory. In addition to streamlined graphics and a fully voiced narrative, the game offers two versions: an enhanced version with refined gameplay and an accessible difficulty setting, and a classic version that combines nostalgic features from the original.
