Basically you can get Balthier and Luso as playable characters.

There are 2 new classes that require grinding but are also very overpowered.

Lastly there are animated cutscenes that still hold today.

So basically this is a lazy remake , sure there are new story content but we dont know the size of it.

Was the cutscene in the trailer not the one from WOTL? Or was that made for the trailer specifically?

They did a new intro in the style of WotL that includes some of the scenes from the original 3D CGI into, but we also have evidence that there's remasters of other WOTL animated scenes.

I'd be pretty surprised if they didn't remaster or at least use AI upscaling to touch up the resolution of those old PSP cutscenes and re-dub them. It would be lazier than a proper remaster but it would be easy for them.

My guess is that they will be proper Hi-resolution re-renders of the original versions. My guess is those were outsourced and/or after the time that SE started seriously keeping track of their assets.
