June 2025
When Square Enix chose Final Fantasy IV as the first core entry to receive a full 3D remake, it was more than a nostalgic gesture—it was a risk. The original SNES title was revered for its dramatic storytelling, memorable characters, and foundational Active Time Battle (ATB) system. Bringing all of that into a new visual and mechanical dimension was a challenge, but the result is a faithful and often striking reimagining of a true JRPG classic. The 3D remake adopts a stylized, chibi art style that some players might find a bit at odds with the serious themes of betrayal, loss, and redemption. However, it’s consistently polished and expressive. Character animations, facial expressions, and battle effects add life and nuance the original 16-bit sprites couldn’t convey. While the visuals won’t wow in a post-HD era, they serve their purpose well and maintain a cohesive charm. Voice Acting & Dialogue: Bringing Personality to Pixels One of the remake’s biggest upgrades is its voice acting. Cecil, Kain, Rosa, and the rest of the cast are now fully voiced during key story moments. The performances range from solid to excellent, with Kain’s brooding presence and Rydia’s emotional growth benefiting especially from added depth. Some dialogue has been modernized slightly but stays true to the tone and drama of the original. These additions make the story more immersive and emotionally resonant than ever before. The remake retains the core of the original’s turn-based ATB system, but it adds new layers of strategy. Enemies are tougher, and bosses are significantly more punishing, often requiring specific tactics, smart use of skills, and an understanding of party dynamics. The game doesn’t pull punches—and that’s a good thing. The added difficulty gives a fresh sense of challenge, even for veterans of the original. New features like the Augment System, which lets you pass special abilities between characters, add customization and replay value. While not always well-explained, it’s a welcome addition that offers meaningful choices in combat. Even over 30 years later, Final Fantasy IV’s story holds up. The tale of Cecil’s transformation from a conflicted Dark Knight to a Paladin of light is rich with themes of guilt, redemption, and identity. The supporting cast—from the loyal Dragoon Kain to the tragic twins Palom and Porom—are archetypal yet memorable. The 3D remake doesn’t add much in the way of new narrative content, but it does enhance what’s already there. Cutscenes are more cinematic, and the emotional beats hit harder thanks to the new presentation and voice work. Nobuo Uematsu’s original compositions remain intact, beautifully remastered. The haunting notes of “Theme of Love” and the energetic battle themes are standouts. While the soundtrack isn’t radically different, its slight enhancements pair perfectly with the new visual and emotional tone of the game. The Final Fantasy IV 3D Remake is more than a visual upgrade—it’s a lovingly crafted reintroduction of one of gaming’s most foundational RPGs. It doesn’t replace the 2D original, but it stands proudly alongside it, offering a deeper, more challenging, and more cinematic experience. For newcomers, this is a fantastic entry point into classic Final Fantasy storytelling. For returning fans, it’s a meaningful new lens through which to experience a beloved adventure. Classic storytelling, upgraded presentation, and tough-but-fair combat make this remake a worthy love letter to one of Final Fantasy’s most enduring tales. Pros: -Faithful adaptation with added emotional depth -Voice acting enhances key story moments -Strategic, challenging combat -Charming, well-executed visual style Cons: -Chibi style may clash with darker themes -Difficulty spikes can frustrate new players -Some systems (like Augments) lack clear guidance Rating: 8/10

Fun remake. I still prefer the 2D versions, especially the Vita version, but this is a good alternative. The vanilla game is quite slow, recommend using a fix to up the FPS. (Steam deck users should be aware of a bug with the steam cloud save, don't change platforms or your save will "be erased". Play either on the deck or in your desktop)

Makes an old school rpg bearable with cinematic camera angles during cutscenes. I recommend this over the pixel remaster.
