Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is out today on PS4, plus 2 new dynamic themes

Check out the To Zanarkand and Blitzball themes in action

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is out today in the UK and Europe on PS4! We released the PS3 and Vita versions last year and if you picked those up back then (thank you!) we hope you’ve enjoyed your time in Spira. We’ve released the PS4 version so that no matter what Sony platform you own, no matter where you play, you can always play these timeless games in one awesome package.

Whether you’re a hardcore Final Fantasy fan looking to upgrade your copy, someone who’s never played either Final Fantasy X or X-2 before or someone who never owned a PS3 or Vita so missed out on the HD Remasters, the PS4 version of Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is definitely worth you checking out.

You might have seen a special trailer we released earlier in the week called “Lessons from Spira”. This is a pretty cool trailer we put together that hopefully reminds you some of the ways Final Fantasy X and X-2 made an impact on you. You can watch it below but I guess I should put a *spoiler warning* here if you’ve never played the game before.

All three versions (PS4, PS3 & PSVita*) of Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster share the same save data, so if you’re swapping consoles then you don’t have to worry about losing your save data or trophies! You can pick up exactly where you left off using cloud saves and on Vita it means you can play the games wherever you want. Look out for oncoming traffic though.

The PS4 version also has the ability to switch between the remastered and original music in Final Fantasy X. Personally I love the remastered tracks but this was a feature fans asked to be added so that’s what we did!

We also wanted to give PS4 Final Fantasy X and X-2 fans something completely brand new as well and you may have seen elsewhere on the internet two PS4 exclusive Final Fantasy X dynamic themes. Well they are both available on PSN today for £1.69/€1.99. Surprise!
You can watch a quick preview via the videos below:

To Zanarkand

The “To Zanarkand” theme is based on the iconic opening scene from Final Fantasy X. On the lower screen, Yuna and her Guardians are sitting around the campfire and on the upper screen Tidus is gazing out at the pyreflies in the distance. The system music will also change to “To Zanarkand” to set the scene. Oh and the colours for the icons is based on the Sphere Grid Node colours, in case you were wondering.

Blitzball

The Blitzball theme is an homage to the greatest sport of all time! This theme comes with customised moogle icons (based on Lulu’s moogle that she sometimes equips as a weapon) and plays the Blitzball theme in the background. Keep an eye on the scoreboard on the top screen to keep track of the score and make sure you don’t miss the Blitzball whizzing across the lower screen too!

As I mentioned before, both themes are available today on PSN for all of you to enjoy! And of course I hope you enjoy your time in Spira with Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster on PS4. Praise be to Yevon.

* PS3 and PS Vita versions sold separately
