During the Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2024 live stream, Square Enix announced that Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters 1 to 6, the Trials Of Mana remake and Legend Of Mana are now available on Xbox Game Pass.

Final Fantasy I – VI Pixel Remaster – Available on Xbox and PC Today

The first six Final Fantasy games are some of the most beloved games of all time. From the RPG genre-defining Final Fantasy to the all-time classic Final Fantasy VI, each of these games represents a milestone in gaming history. And now, you can experience them on Xbox or Windows PC.

But these releases aren’t just a history lesson. The Pixel Remaster series takes these classic adventures and remakes them with new pixel art optimized to look incredible on HD displays, and beautiful rearranged soundtracks (seriously – their audible awesomeness cannot be overstated!). Plus, there are plenty of quality-of-life features, including multiple font options, the ability to switch to the old soundtracks if you’re a purist, the ability to boost experience for faster levelling, turn off random enemy encounters, and even auto-battle.

These games, particularly Final Fantasy VI, are often cited as some of the greatest RPGs ever made and you can experience them on Xbox Series X|S or Windows PC.

Trials of Mana – Available on Game Pass Today

Square Enix is blessed with many acclaimed series beyond Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, and one of the greatest is the Mana franchise.

Like other RPG series, Mana games are each standalone adventures with their own worlds, characters, and mechanics, but linked by thematic elements like nature, elementals, and the iconic Mana Tree.

Visions of Mana launched on Xbox Series X|S earlier this year, introducing many new fans to this incredible series – and now two more titles have arrived: Trials of Mana and Legend of Mana… and they’re available today!

We’ll start with Trials of Mana. This is a beautifully vibrant action-RPG where you pick a party of three very different heroes from a selection of six – and depending on who you choose, you’ll experience a different narrative as you play through the game. There’s Duran, the ab-tastic swordsman; Kevin the ferocious Beastman; Reisz, the warrior Amazonian, Charlotte, the elfin magician; Angela, the maligned mage, and Hawkeye, the charming thief.

Whichever party you build, you’ll explore a beautiful and vibrant 3D world, taking on enemies and uncovering secrets as you go. With fast-paced action, tons of character customization through the class system and incredible music, it’s a wonderfully fun and compelling RPG. In other words, exactly what you’d expect from a Mana game!

It’s available today on Xbox Series X|S, Windows, and Game Pass.

Legend of Mana – Available on Game Pass Today

Legend of Mana also hits Xbox Series X|S today! This is an RPG that does things a little differently. Rather than give you a world to explore, it lets you build your own.

You play as a protagonist (yes, you get to name them), who sets off on a journey to find the mystical Mana Tree. But when you set off, you’re surprised to discover that the world map is empty… and it’s up to you to fill it in.

Instead of one narrative, you’ll play through up to 68 quests, and while they tie in with three central arcs, each has their own story to tell. You can play through these quests in different orders, and as you play you’ll create your own world map.

This remastered version of the classic game features beautifully crisp redrawn backgrounds (they’re really pretty!), and an incredible soundtrack by Yoko Shimomura – the composer behind the Kingdom Hearts series, Final Fantasy XV and many more! Add fast-paced combat, a lot of choice over how to build and customize your character and you have a free-form adventure that’s unlike anything else out there.

It’s available today on Xbox Series X|S, Windows, and Game Pass.
