Upon hitting the PS1 in 2000, Final Fantasy IX was met with rave reviews. It boasts an impressive average score of 94 from 22 critic reviews on Metacritic. Even if it isn’t as well-known as some earlier titles in the series, it’s actually the best-rated of them all on Metacritic.

Coinciding with this, there’s buzz about a possible announcement, perhaps hinting at a remake. Keep your fingers crossed as we wait to see if these rumors come true.
