## Summary

Square Enix has released another character trailer for Final Fantasy Resonance, this time showcasing series icon Cloud Strife as one of the game's "Visions" - allies who can be summoned to fight alongside the player during their journey. The clip follows a similar reveal for the Warrior of Light and continues the studio's rollout of character content ahead of the game's launch, giving fans a first proper look at a beloved hero rendered in the title's distinctive art style.

Though brief and light on gameplay footage, the trailer shows Cloud unleashing his signature combat moves rendered in Square Enix's HD-2D visual style, which Resonance becomes the first mainline Final Fantasy game to use, following titles like Octopath Traveler and Live A Live. The game will also feature series staples such as airships, crystals, espers, moogles and classic turn-based battles, and is set to launch on Switch 1 and Switch 2 on 22nd October 2026.
