Final Fantasy V is the latest Final Fantasy to be remastered and re-released for IOS. As always Square Enix are not afraid to put people off with their pricing, this going to cost you a wooping £10.99, way the average IOS games.
Sure I can understand that you may be getting more value for money from a Final Fantasy title than a pick me up puzzler, but Square Enix already made their money when the game was originally released.
Heres a snippit of the press release:
Return to the classic medieval tale of magic, monsters and friendship with FINAL FANTASY V! Twenty years after the original FINAL FANTASY V released in Japan, the classic RPG has found its way to mobile devices. Embark on an epic adventure as four heroes driven together by fate: Bartz and his Chocobo companion, Princess Lenna of Castle Tycoon, the mysterious Galuf, and the pirate captain Faris. The crystals that bring peace and prosperity to the world – earth, water, fire, and wind – have lost their power and are on the verge of destruction.
FEATURES
Customize characters with an unprecedented degree of freedom with the Job and Ability System – including the additional Gladiator, Cannoneer, Oracle, and Necromancer jobs!
- Veteran character designer Kazuko Shibuya has returned to recreate the characters and graphics for a completely enhanced mobile experience!
- Touch-screen controls and active-time battle system are optimized for fluid combat on mobile devices
- This new mobile version also includes “The Sealed Temple” from the 2006 release, as well as the Tetsuya Nomura-designed optional boss Enuo, and an extraordinary soundtrack
As we make are way through the back catelogue, surely it is only a matter of time until fan favourite FFVII is touch screen enhanced or perhaps my favourite FFXII.
