News: Square Enix has finally given us a date on when we can experience the Remastered Edition of a Gamecube classic.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition has been in development for some time now. Fans have been waiting to hear when they might be able to play it and now we finally have a release date. Beginning later this summer, you will finally get a chance to pick up Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition when it launches on August 27, 2020. This remaster will launch on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, iOS, and Android devices. It is a bit of a surprise that Xbox is not on that list though. The original Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles was a Gamecube exclusive so Square Enix obviously doesn’t have any problems putting it on new platforms.

Alongside updates to the visuals and audio, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition features a number of enhancements to make the experience more enchanting than ever. Character voiceovers, online multiplayer with cross-play functionality, new items, and challenging new dungeons and bosses await as players explore a fantasy world and make new memories, calling upon magic and might as they bond with fantastic characters and team up with friends to take down fearsome foes through action-RPG gameplay.

Additionally, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition introduces a brand-new ‘Mimic’ feature which will allow players to take the form of various characters they meet on their journey. By collecting stamps and visiting Moogle Houses, or completing difficult dungeons, players will acquire unique crystals that will allow them to change their appearance to that of their favorite Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles characters and continue their adventure in style.

Check out the new trailer that was released to coincide with the release date announcement and then tell us what you think. Will you be picking up Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition?
