Final Fantasy Resonance Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Final Fantasy Resonance is one of the best RPGs of the year, but also one of the best Final Fantasy games in recent times.
I’ve played tens of hours of Final Fantasy Resonance, and it’s easily among the best games I’ve played this year — a must-have for any Nintendo Switch 2 owner, especially fans of tactical turn-based combat. Its visuals are stunning, the gameplay is engaging and moreish, and Visions are an interesting (albeit occasionally flawed) alternative to the classic Jobs system. The story won’t win any prizes for uniqueness, but frankly it’s still a fun adventure to watch unfold even if it is predictable — and I wish I could be playing more instead of writing this review.
Final Fantasy Resonance remakes Brave Exvius as an excellent HD-2D RPG with fast turn-based combat, deep Vision customization, and strong presentation.
Final Fantasy delivers a wonderful blend of retro and modern RPG charms in a gorgeous HD-2D outing.
Final Fantasy Resonance (Switch 2) Review – 9/10: It may have one foot planted in the series' history, but in a time when mainline Final Fantasy is still figuring itself out, Final Fantasy Resonance is easy to recommend. - Game Informer
Final Fantasy Resonance is the latest Team Asano project to feature gorgeous HD-2D visuals and an accessible turn-based battle system with surprising depth.
There are some games that don't need to do anything particularly groundbreaking to be incredibly enjoyable. Final Fantasy Resonance is a game that makes it clear from the very first minute that it doesn't intend to break away from the past...

Final Fantasy Resonance may have a couple of bumps along the way, but it is an impeccable journey nonetheless that all Final Fantasy fans should experience. Jam-packed full of phenomenal bangers, with a fulfilling turn-based combat system that rewards preparation with a customisation system that allows for build variety. But while its story may flounder towards the end, what holds it aloft is a cast of incredibly charming and memorable characters in a rich, nostalgic pixel art aesthetic.
Final Fantasy Resonance isn't revolutionary, but I'd argue that it doesn't need to be
Final Fantasy Resonance sports one of the best turn-based combat systems seen in years, bolstered by lovable characters and a genuinely stunning presentation. However, it's held back by a lackluster story and odd pacing.
Square Enix return to turn-based combat and 2D graphics for the latest Final Fantasy game, with an enjoyably retro spin-off featuring multiple heroes from the past.
