The Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition is now available at an all-time low price of $49.99 on Amazon, surpassing even Black Friday deals as per records and price-tracking site CamelCamelCamel. This represents a significant 33% discount from its original price of $74.99.
Final Fantasy I - VI Collection Anniversary Edition
Originally launched on October 8 for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 (with full compatibility on PS5), this collection meticulously remasters the first six mainline Final Fantasy games. Square Enix has chosen to refine rather than reinvent, preserving the iconic pixel art while enhancing it for today's displays.
The visual upgrade ensures the games look stunning on both large TVs and in handheld mode. Additionally, the soundtrack has been elevated with new orchestral arrangements supervised by the legendary composer Nobuo Uematsu. The package also includes quality-of-life enhancements such as options to disable random encounters and increase experience and gil gains, catering to players who prefer to focus on the story rather than the grind.
As a nostalgic bonus, the edition comes with a sticker sheet featuring 12 classic character sprites, including the Black Mage, Moogle, Terra, Kain, and the villainous Kefka. While not an extravagant addition, it's a charming touch for fans of the series.
At its initial price of $74.99, the collection might have been a harder sell, but at the reduced price of $49.99, it becomes an attractive option for anyone eager to explore or revisit the origins of this iconic RPG series. Given that physical copies are the only collectible edition available, it's advisable to grab one while they remain accessible, especially at this price point.
