Final Fantasy IV Coming To iOS On December 20, Android In 2013

Square Enix has announced today that it will be bringing Final Fantasy IV to iOS devices on December 20, and to Android at some point during 2013. The port appears not to be the original, but instead the title’s remake that was brought to the Nintendo DS with 3D graphics among other features and improvements.

Japenese gaming site Gamer has published the game’s first screenshots (below), which, in comparison with the first two Final Fantasy titles on iOS, look terrific. The original title, which first launched on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System back in 1991 — had 2D visuals, whereas these are 3D.

In addition to the new visuals, the remake brought new events to the game’s storyline, a new ability system, and other new features. It also offered mini-games and took advantage of the Nintendo DS’s touchscreen. Of course, these are all things we’ll be expecting from the iOS version when it lands in just under two weeks.

Like other Square Enix titles for iOS, Final Fantasy IV won’t be cheap. Expect it to be priced at around $17.99.

    You should mention that this was released originally as Final Fantasy II outside of Japan. Though any FF fan should know this already.

    I bought the FF3 and after 3 weeks of continuous playing, finally completed the game.
    It is the best game i’ve enjoyed on the iOS platform.
    The graphics are much MUCH more sharper and detailed on the IOS than on the 3DS (which looks pixelated and grainy on 3DS). And when i say best, i mean it.
    You are missing out on some incredible piece of gaming history, if you don’t get the FF3 or the upcoming FF4. It is simply a masterpiece, no joke.

    I’m looking forward to FF4 topping it.

      I also played FF3 on Galaxy S3, and it is best game I’ve played. Noting even comes close to it.

      Unfortunately, FFIV won’t come out on Android until 2013
