Final Fantasy I and II Coming To The iPhone/iPod Touch

January 21, 2010 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Just announced at Square Enix’s Facebook page: Final Fantasy I and II are coming to an App Store near you. The nearly 20-year-old games have been remastered and re-released a number of times, with versions appearing for just about every platform invented thus far, so it was only a matter of time before they made their way to the iPhone and iPod touch.

Release date and pricing are both TBA, and nothing official has been announced on Square Enix’s official site as of yet, but in the meantime, they’ve posted screenshots, and they look quite excellent. With Final Fantasy XIII coming out for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March, going all the way back to the long-running series’ beginning on the iPhone sounds like a really fun way to pass the next couple of months.
