This game was released on July 11, 2017 and is no longer available to pre-order. Any incentives that were offered are listed below.

The Zodiac Age is a HD remaster of the Final Fantasy XII: International Zodiac Job System version, which was released in Japan back in 2007 but never ported West, contrary to its name. In addition to remastered character models and cutscenes, the upcoming release also includes a new trial mode which involves hunting monsters in 100 different maps, newly recorded background music, and support for trophies.

Originally launched in 2006 for PlayStation 2, Final Fantasy XII is widely acclaimed as one of the best Final Fantasy titles. The game is set in the magical world of Ivalice, and follows an energetic orphan Vaan on his journey to become a sky pirate.
