Square Enix has released a new trailer of Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster with new footage. The video shows a sequence of battles, focusing on Overdrives, in the original release and in the HD version. They've also have arranged the battle music in the HD version. What are your opinions?

Square Enix has announced today that you can now pre-order Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster and they will also release a limited edition of the HD remake of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 in North America, Europe and other PAL regions. Next to the game the limited edition will contain a book with exclusive artwork from the original development teams.

Square Enix did not tell when Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster will be released. Since Square Enix is remastering the international version of both games, North American fans can fight the Dark Aeons and Penance for the first time and also some other changes.

They've also released a new video comparing the intro movie in the original version of Final Fantasy X and the HD remake. You can also check the official website of the games.

A couple of days ago Final Fantasy X-2 HD was announced in the Japanese magazine Jump. Today Square Enix has announced that the HD remake of Final Fantasy X and X-2 will be coming to the United Status and Europe!

The HD collection will be known as the Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster and will be released on one disc for PlayStation 3. The PlayStation Vita versions will be sold separately. Both games will be based on the International version. Europeans did get the International version of Final Fantasy X back in 2002 which features the Dark Aeons and the superboss Penance.
