Square Enix didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The retro aesthetic has been a popular trend in gaming for some time.
It’s especially popular with indie titles as generally 2D games are easier to make than full 3D ones.
Games using HD-2D include 2018’s Octopath Traveler and 2022’sLive A Live.
Both the standard physical edition and the Anniversary Edition areavailable for preorder on the Square Enix store.
