Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster Now Available for Preorder on Nintendo Switch 2 - News

Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster is set to launch exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5, coinciding with the console's debut. This enhanced version of the beloved 2012 Nintendo 3DS JRPG brings the game into the modern era with stunning HD graphics, a refreshed user interface, and new features such as fast-forward options for both battles and cut scenes. The game is now available for pre-order (check it out at Target). Dive in for more details.

Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster

Release Date: Out June 5
Price: $39.99 at Best Buy

Surprisingly affordable at $39.99, the game's price might be influenced by the fact that the physical version comes as a "game-key card," which we'll discuss further below.

Note: This is a Game-Key Card

Some Nintendo Switch 2 games are available on cards that contain the full game, while others, like Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster, use a game-key card system. These cards resemble traditional Switch 2 cartridges but do not hold the game data. To play, you must insert the card into your Switch 2 and download the 11GB game from the eShop. Despite this, you can still share or sell the physical card, though you'll need it to access the game.

What is Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster?

Originally released on the 3DS, Bravely Default is a classic turn-based JRPG centered around a group of heroes on a mission to retrieve four crystals. Its standout feature is the innovative combat system that allows players to accumulate turns and execute multiple actions simultaneously. The game also boasts a comprehensive job system, enabling the customization of party members' abilities.

The HD remaster retains all these elements and enhances the experience with additional features. Alongside the fast-forward option for battles, you can now accelerate through cut scenes. The encounter rate can still be adjusted, allowing you to control how often you face enemies. The remaster also includes an online mode and new minigames, enriching the overall gameplay.
