This was a hotly anticipated game for me, ever since that first reveal.

The game looks absolutely stunning, the environments are colourful and vibrant and was a treat to see!
The episodic nature and the fact it’s only part of the game bothers me, I’d rather they didn’t prolong it.
All of the characters are given more time to be fleshed out and overall I enjoyed them, like visiting old friends.
The story follows what came before but with a twist, there is a new plot that seems to be growing alongside its original counterpart, I’m not fully sold on it yet.

It’s biggest flaw is it’s side quests, as with FF15 they are tedious and completely pointless, they were a chore to even get through.
Gameplay wise it’s a departure from its turn based original but it’s fun, it’s slick and pretty, and I found myself getting excited in higher difficulties.

Overall I’d say If you are a Final Fantasy fan then definitely pick this up.
