Final Fantasy VI PC Release is Based on Mobile Version

final fantasy vi 12-08-15-1

Square Enix is releasing Final Fantasy VI on PC (via Steam) next week, on December 16th.

The bad news – the game is based on the updated mobile version, which swaps out the classic sprites, fonts, and visuals for a weird, pastel-like look (which you can see an example of featured above).

It’s worth checking out a breakdown of why this is such a bad “update” by Zeboyd Games pixel artist Bill Stiernberg, which you can read here.
