[edit] Changes from the Original
Changes from the original version are as follows:
- A new translation, which includes a few retcons to help it link to other games in the Ivalice Alliance, such as now using the term auracite. The spelling and pronunciation of many names have been change and, while they sound more correct in English, the pronunciation no longer matches the katakana of the names.
- Several job classes and many skills were renamed, and some skills had their JP costs tweaked; for instance, while the original "Hamedo" cost 1200 JP, "First Strike" costs 1300, or Cloud's Limit Cherry Blossom cost 1200 JP in the previous version and now cost 2500 JP.
- A notable change in the translation quality is the changing of the spelling of six Lucavi's names and titles to match their counterparts in the Ivalice Alliance games and to match the actual spelling of the real world mythological references.
- "Altima, the Bloody Angel" is now "Ultima, the High Seraph" but still called "Angel of Blood" at times.
- "Hashmalum the Regulator" is now "Hashmal, Bringer of Order,"
- "Queklain the Impure King" is now "Cuchulainn the Impure".
- "Velius the Warlock" is now "Belias the Gigas".
- "Adramelk the Ghost of Fury" is now "Adrammelech the Wroth".
- While his name doesn't change, Zalera's original title of "Angel of Death" is now "the Death Seraph"
- Two new generic Jobs, Onion Knight being the first, and Dark Knight being the second.
- Cel-shaded cutscenes instead of using the in-game engine. These cut-scenes did not contain voice acting in the Japanese version, but voice acting was added to the English translation.
- Remastered soundtrack.
- 16:9 display.
- Final Fantasy XII's Balthier and Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift's Luso as playable characters.
- Wireless Multiplayer
- Additional battles and events.
