It has been almost 21 years since Square Enix first releasedFinal Fantasy 10for the PlayStation 2, and the game’s fans continue to produce creative work featuring characters from the title. Despite the love that the community is showing, Square Enix seems to be content with producing official merchandise or simply includingFinal Fantasy 10charactersin other spin-off games. Recently, anFF10fan showed their adoration for the game’s Ronso party member Kimahri by making a very detailed artwork for the character.
Even thoughFinal Fantasy 10has been ported to different platforms across the years, Square Enix does not seem to have the title slated for a remaster into modern gaming platforms. This may come as no surprise, though, especially sinceFF10has turn-based gameplay that may seem dated for this gamer generation. The company is likely focusing on more prominent titles such asFinal Fantasy 7 Remake, theupcomingFinal Fantasy 16, and continuing the success of its MMORPGFinal Fantasy 14.

On Reddit, user TylerHepnerArt posted a photo of theirFinal Fantasy 10artwork. The image features Kimahri, which fans will likely recall as the party’s only Ronso member and a guardian ofFinal Fantasy 10’s female lead Yuna. According to the artist, their Kimahri painting is a continuation of their fan art series featuring the different characters from the game. Upon checking their previous posts, they have already completed pieces that center on Tidus, Yuna, and Auron.
TylerHepnerArt mentioned that Kimahri is one of their favorite character designs of all-time, which is why they took more time in making the art piece. They also asked the Reddit thread which character from the game they want to see next. Many Redditors replied that they would love to see the artist’s version ofFinal Fantasy 10black mage Lulu. For fans who are interested in purchasing art prints, the artist shared an Etsy shop link where they can place orders.
Final Fantasy 10still has many charactersthat TylerHepnerArt has yet to produce fan art for. Not to mention the characters from the game’s sequel,Final Fantasy 10-2. This may mean that the artist’s series may take a while to complete. With no official updates from Square Enix, the fanbase may have to be satisfied with fan art and original content from the community. However, given just how some artists churn out amazing pieces such as these, it may be enough to placate theFF10crowd.
Final Fantasy 10is available now for PC, PS2, PS3, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
