[27/03] Final Fantasy V comes out on iOS tomorrow!

[C i d]

Final Fantasy V comes out on iOS tomorrow, March 27th.




If you happen to be so lucky to live in an area of the world such as New Zealand, you can go pick up Final Fantasy V on the Apple app store right now!


It is currently $19.99 on the New Zealand app store and the price should be right around there for the North American release tomorrow. The folks over at touchgameplay have uploaded a lengthy video for those curious how this new version looks in motion.


FFV for iOS (and eventually Android) featured remastered graphics – including redrawn character portraits. Gameplay has also been revamped to fit the touch-based inputs of the iOS and Android platforms. An official western announcement has yet to be shared by Square Enix, but we imagine that should surface soon as well.

I just went on teh App store on my iPhone and the Final Fantasy V game is now available for $15.99 I believe. Just saw it up so that now makes FFI-FFV playable for iPhone users.

FFV, eh? Would anyone recommend it as a game? Haven't exactly heard much praise from the game, but I would love the idea to play a FF game on my IOS.

The ds port of FFIV is already available in the App Store a few months ago. So yes, FFI-V is all available for iPhone.

A lot of people praise the great job system in FFV. However, if you are looking for a deeper story, FFIV has arguably better plot amongst FFI-V.

"...and eventually Android"

Guess I should have expected this, since I'm still waiting on FFIV for Android. It sounded like V was going to be on both platforms on day 1, but sadly not. I have an iPod Touch, so it's not like I can't play the games, but my Android tablet is much better suited for games and the larger screen is nicer besides. And they're so expensive I'm not going to get them on both, so guess it's more waiting for me...

Oh my... I was really excited for this, I recently got an iPad Mini, so I was contemplating getting it... until I saw that video. The character models look horrendous, like some cheap internet flash game. I loved the sprites from the PSP remakes. But these just look too tall and the heads are massive! Arrrgh, will there ever be a version of Final Fantasy V that is playable. The PS1 re-release looks so bad with is menus, the GBA version soiled the dialogue and now this version has flash visuals... not impressed.

I just looked back at the PSP version of FF4, it's not just me the visuals have really lost the 16-bit touch FF4 had to this

The 16-bit era has been over a long time ago. Ff1 and ff2 along with 3D remakes such as ff3 and ff4 are released. I think people should get over it. Their just sprites. Yes, we all love the iconic 16-bit sprites but their never going to go back. So why complain for something we saw coming.
