Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster Reviews
Overall, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster is still a solid game in terms of how it plays, but it needed more time and money to really make this a proper HD remaster. As such, this feels like a lost opportunity and something that should have been treated with more care.
Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster is a good remaster that might not do much to freshen up the original experience, but it does make an already good game available to a new generation of RPG fans.

Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster revitalizes a cult classic JRPG, and plants the genre's flag firmly on the Switch 2's soil.
A stone cold classic finds a new home on Nintendo's latest console.
Bravely Default was a sincere love letter to the Final Fantasy franchise, now with this remaster I can't recommend this game enough to my fellow Final Fantasy and JRPG fans; with it playing and looking better than ever!

This is a beautiful, heartfelt, and wonderfully classical JRPG, and as much as I love Mario Kart, over the past week, I’ve wanted to play this one so much more.
If they are going to bring back Nintendo 3DS classics, let them be like this one. Bravely Default is still as recommendable as ever, now with slight improvements and a couple of mini-games to make this adventure more bearable, where choosing a job is much more exciting than in real life.

Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster proves that a classic JRPG can still shine over a decade later, combining a rich story, deep turn-based combat, and smart modern upgrades that appeal to both newcomers and longtime fans.

The inability to set the encounter rate to 0 from the outset is a bit disappointing, and the added mouse-focused mini-games don't offer much in the way of entertainment. Nonetheless, any turn-based RPG fan worth their salt needs to be able to say that they've played Bravely Default, and Flying Fairy HD Remaster represents a fantastic way to christen your Switch 2. If you've already played it through once or twice on 3DS, my recommendation is a little less resounding.
Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster is not just a simple re-release, but represents Square Enix's desire to bring past masterpieces back into vogue so that everyone can enjoy them. Although this new version does not radically alter the original work in terms of content, the graphic restyling and modern settings justify the purchase, especially given the reasonable price.
