post on the developer's site explains that while the games were "created and published by Square Enix, the HD versions of the titles were remastered by Virtuos."The studio describes the project as "a new milestone" for the team, and one which has been the "biggest to date" that they've attempted.Up until this point, Virtuos is best-known for porting numerous titles to iOS platforms, including XCOM: Enemy Unknown, though it also contributed to The Last of Us, being responsible for creating "character art, environment art and props... including clothing for main characters Joel and Ellie."In case you missed it, the HD remasters of the game got a new Japanese trailer last week , lamenting how there will come a day when we all "have to separate from someone you love most." Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster will be available on PS3 and PlayStation Vita on March 18 in North America and March 21 in Europe
