What is Final Fantasy Resonance?

Final Fantasy Resonance is a standalone console RPG built on the story of Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, the long-running mobile title. Square Enix co-developed it with LANCARSE Ltd. — a studio with a strong turn-based pedigree from their work on Bandai Namco dungeon-crawlers — which makes the collaborative lineup well-suited for the game's classic RPG structure. No knowledge of the mobile game is required to follow the story; this is designed as a fresh entry point.

Gameplay

The visual style is HD-2D: pixel-art character sprites rendered over modern 3D environments with real-time lighting, depth-of-field, and atmospheric effects. It's the same aesthetic that defined Octopath Traveler and Triangle Strategy, and it fits comfortably in the classic Final Fantasy lineage.

Combat is turn-based, keeping things firmly in traditional JRPG territory rather than the action-oriented direction of Final Fantasy XVI or VII Rebirth. Details on the battle system and party mechanics haven't been fully revealed yet, but the LANCARSE partnership suggests a thoughtfully designed tactical layer.

Editions and price

Final Fantasy Resonance is priced at $49.99 — a step below the standard $70 blockbuster release, which reflects its roots as a mobile IP adaptation. No collector's or premium editions have been announced yet.

Is Final Fantasy Resonance on Game Pass or PS Plus?

Not announced for Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Plus, or Nintendo Switch Online as of June 2026. No subscription availability has been confirmed.
