Final Fantasy I-VI Anniversary Collection Gets Limited-Time Discount At Amazon

The Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection is on sale for $20 off on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation

Final Fantasy's Pixel Remaster Collection is back on sale for $55 (was $75) at multiple major retailers, including Amazon, Target, and GameStop. If you live in the Midwest, you may be eligible for an additional 30% discount on the Switch version, which drops the price down to only $38.49.

Released in October for Switch and PlayStation, the Anniversary Edition comes with a sticker sheet of Final Fantasy character sprites. It's worth emphasizing that this is a true physical release, with all six Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters on the Switch cartridge or PS4 disc (fully compatible with PS5).

The collection includes the Pixel Remaster editions of the first six mainline Final Fantasy games. Square Enix initially released the physical in 2023, but the small print run sold out extremely fast. Last October's re-release brought the collection to major retailers for the first time as the Anniversary Edition.

RPG fans can take advantage of several other deals on Square Enix role-playing games for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox at Amazon this week.

Final Fantasy I-VI Collection Anniversary Edition includes the Pixel Remasters of the following games:

Final Fantasy I (NES, 1987)
Final Fantasy II (NES, 1988)
Final Fantasy III (Famicom, 1990)
Final Fantasy IV (SNES, 1991)
Final Fantasy V (SNES, 1992)
Final Fantasy VI (SNES, 1994)

All six games received comprehensive graphical and audio overhauls for the Pixel Remaster series. Square Enix remodeled the sprites using the original pixel art as a foundation. Series composer Nobuo Uematsu supervised the creation of the rearranged soundtracks. You can also play the games with the original soundtracks, but the rearranged versions are great.

Numerous quality-of-life features were added, including quick save, customizable text fonts, experience multipliers, auto-battling, the ability to turn off random encounters, and more. You can also browse the in-game bestiary and illustration gallery as well as listen to classic tunes with a music player.

Square Enix's Pixel Remasters project debuted on PC and mobile in Summer 2021 with the three 8-bit Final Fantasy games and came to a close with Final Fantasy VI in February 2022. The collection was ported to PlayStation and Switch last year and to Xbox Series X|S in September.

The proper Final Fantasy III was exclusive to Japan until the release of the 3D remake for Nintendo DS. Long-time fans in North America may remember Final Fantasy VI, arguably the best game in the franchise, as Final Fantasy III.

The games can be played in any order, but it's really cool to see how the series evolved from the 8-bit era on the Nintendo Entertainment System to the 16-bit era of the Super Nintendo.
