About This Game

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster packages two very different games. X is a strictly turn-based pilgrimage across Spira in which the Sphere Grid replaces conventional levelling and every character swap happens in full view of the turn order. X-2 reuses that world for a faster job-swapping sequel with a markedly lighter temperament.

X remains one of the series' most emotionally direct stories, and its combat has aged better than most of its contemporaries precisely because it never hides the order of play. Presentation shows its age in places and the voice work is uneven. For players who want a fantasy RPG that commits fully to turn-based combat rather than hybrid action, this pairing is still the reference point.
