The latest issue of Shonen Jump has a page of new CG artwork and cutscene screenshots from Square Enix's 3D remake of Final Fantasy IV, previewing a game that we likely won't receive until next year. If the release schedule is anything like Final Fantasy III's (DS), we'll have to wait three months after the game ships in Japan before a localized version hits North America.
Siliconera sectioned off the characters, and compared the images with their counterparts on the original SNES game. Cecil doesn't seem to have lost any of his femininity, and Kain's dragoon outfit looks just as badass as ever! You can check out the rest of the juxtaposed pieces at Siliconera, but we've got the original Japanese magazine scan after the post break.

I like the graphical style these remakes have. It's good to be able to play these games, in a new fresh way. Even if they aren't all that different, and just look pretty now.

Yup, FFIV is certainly looking good! I think it looks slightly better than III but one thing that would definitely swing it for me would be some voice overs like in the upcoming Rings Of Fate.
