The remake will feature a full 3D recreation of the game’s world, offering seamless transitions between fields and towns to enhance immersion. The combat system will retain its command-based battles, allowing players to engage enemies using various attacks and magic spells known as “Arts.” The game is designed to be accessible to both new players and RPG veterans with intuitive controls.
While the game is confirmed for the Switch, there is a possibility of it being released on other platforms, such as PlayStation and PC, though these are yet to be determined. The western publisher for the game is also not yet finalized, and further announcements are expected regarding distribution and potential platform releases.
