Traverse the wide world with your airship and other vessels. Return to the game that started it all.

Behold the beautiful and sometimes tragic twists of fate that await you on your adventure. Final Fantasy II introduced a unique skill level system that strengthens different attributes of the characters depending on their fighting style instead of leveling up.

  • Final Fantasy VI: Regarded as one of the most beloved games in the Final Fantasy series, Final Fantasy VI features a robust roster of playable characters, each with their own stories, goals and destinies. Players will be able to customize their party members’ abilities, magic spells and summons with the acclaimed magicite system.
