Final Fantasy Resonance

Final Fantasy Resonance is an upcoming turn-based RPG game co-developed by Square Enix and Lancarse and published by Square Enix. It is an adaptation of the 2015 mobile game Final Fantasy Brave Exvius's first story arc, "Lapis." It will be the first HD-2D game in the Final Fantasy series.

The game is set to release in October 2026 for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S.^[1]

Gameplay

Final Fantasy Resonance is a JRPG with traditional turn-based combat, rather than the ATB system from previous installments in the franchise. Enemies can be stunned by filling a stun meter, followed by special and combination attacks. During battles, players will be able to summon Visions, the ghosts of "iconic characters from the Final Fantasy series" to gain additional abilities, such as Cloud from Final Fantasy VII granting enhanced physical attacks and lightning magic.^[2][3][4]

Plot

The story centers on Rain (Clifford Chapin / Nobuhiko Okamoto), Lasswell (Alejandro Saab / Yusuke Kobayashi), and Fina (Lizzie Freeman / Akane Fujita) as they set out to protect the remaining crystals across the world after the Earth Crystal is destroyed by Veritas of the Dark (Ian Sinclair / Akio Otsuka).
