    I played the mobile version way back in the day… How similar is this going to be? Obviously there’s a graphical upgrade, but will the gameplay and story be different at all? I don’t recall the mobile game being very deep or substantial. It was kinda just cheap fun, and, personally, I’d need more to buy it on console…

      From IGN: (https://www.ign.com/articles/final-fantasy-resonance-we-played-the-first-turn-based-hd-2d-ff-game-ign-exclusive-preview)

      Resonance is an adaptation of Brave Exvius, the Final Fantasy mobile game that shuttered in 2025, which had a 10-year run. And to be abundantly clear, there are no microtransactions; Resonance is not a gacha game. Now, you might be thinking this is like how Octopath Traveler 0 was a revamp of the mobile game Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent – however, Resonance is a lot different. This is not a port or even a remake of Brave Exvius, rather it serves as the narrative foundation with a whole new combat system and overworld. Its story has been tuned for a traditional RPG that’s informed by Brave Exvius’ first season with everything else built from the ground up.
