![]() ![]() What doesn’t quite sit right is the game’s often-dour outlook and serious tale. It’s an art style that feels perfectly at home on the Switch, and given the lack of the full-fat version on Nintendo’s console, it all feels like this is the right place for it to be. The game’s adorable aesthetic and pocket-sized protagonists almost make this feel like a completely different thread of the Final Fantasy mythos, shifting from the realism of the recent run from X onwards, back to the more stylised turns of IX, Crystal Chronicles or the Theatrhythm games. It’s perhaps intended as a primer for the series aimed at younger gamers, or for those who just want to return to the story again in a slightly different manner, but, if we’re being mostly cynical today, it’s to squeeze just a little more cash out of XV’s exceedingly high production costs, as well as the Final Fantasy franchise and its fans. In fairness I can’t quite fathom why you’d pick this up on PS4 or Xbox One, especially when at this stage it’ll likely cost far more to buy than the original version of XV. ![]()
