Final Fantasy Resonance's Success Just Changed the Math on One Long-Requested Remake

Final Fantasy Resonance has been one of the most pleasant surprises of the year so far. The HD-2D title originally debuted as Final Fantasy Brave Exvius back in 2015, but its console version is vastly different from the mobile-only predecessor. Instead of being just a simple run-of-the-mill port, Final Fantasy Resonance is a complete revamp of Brave Exvius that gets rid of microtransactions and adds better visuals. As great of a game as Final Fantasy Resonance is, Square Enix almost made a huge mistake with its development.
