Square Enix has announced that the latest update to Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age is now available, and includes the achievement system from the original game, finally bringing the Sky Pirate’s Den into the re-release of the game.
For those unaware, the Sky Pirate’s Den allows players to access a brand new room that will slowly fill up with new sprites as you reach various benchmarks throughout the game. Attacking enemies a set number of times, spending a certain amount of money, or doing other mundane tasks will grant you various rewards. This option was previously left out when the game releases this summer, when the game launched with just the normal set of PSN trophies attached to it.
Other than that, the 1.04 update doesn’t seem to add any other content, but Square Enix has also released a new free PS4 theme called Eruyt Village for players to download. It’s a dynamic theme that also plays music as you navigate through the menus.

Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age is an excellent example of a holistic approach to producing a well-made remaster. Not only does it feature the usual remaster fare of significantly improved visuals up to their maximum capabilities but it also includes significant and positive improvements and additions to its audio and gameplay that take into consideration both its past strengths and weakness, the resources of the current times, and both its past and current potential audience. Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age is undoubtedly a remaster worth playing for both newcomers and fans of the original.
