Essential improvements
Improve the readability of the in-game text
- The stock fonts used by the game are narrow and difficult to read.
- The Japanese font, however, has characters that are easier to read and resembles the font used in the PlayStation Portable remake of the Final Fantasy I & II, as well as Final Fantasy XIII.
- As of January 30, 2024, the game has been updated to have the option of switching to the pixel font used in the console versions.
