We’ve been expecting Final Fantasy V to be made available onto iOS some time this month, and seeing how this is the final week of March, there’s no better time for the game to be released than this week. Considering the game just made itself available in the New Zealand App Store, that pretty much guarantees the game will be made available in the U.S. App Store later this evening.
Square Enix originally announced Final Fantasy V would be made available only in Japan, but seeing how many fans of the series, as well as this specific title, in the U.S., we had a feeling they’d bring it to the U.S. as well. (more…)

If you happen to own the Sony PS3, then get this – fans of the Final Fantasy series will be pleased to hear that the beta of the Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is now available, and Square Enix, in a way, has said that they will not be sparing any expense in delivering the most memorable elements of the series into A Realm Reborn. There will definitely be subsequent patches of the title, where the Square Enix team intends to throw in more great stuff into the mix, and it would not be too hard to do considering how Final Fantasy has a quarter of a century’s worth of history to draw from.
It seemed that there is a new rumor going around, touting that Final Fantasy Type-0 localization was well on its way to being complete before the project was dumped – at least this is what an anonymous source stepped forward to say. Apparently, the anonymous source in question got in touch with Operation Suzaku, which is actually a fan group that lobbies for the portable RPG’s release in English speaking countries. One of the voice cast claimed that English voice acting was recorded in its entirety in late 2011, which happened not too long after Type-0′s release in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Ah, the Final Fantasy franchise has seen its fair share of highs in the past, and recently, you can say that it has not been going great guns. At all. In fact, many other people have already moved on to other forms of CRPGs, but you cannot deny the fact that there is still a relatively large fan base for the series. We humans forget all too easily too, and as PC and PS3 gamers await the debut of Final Fantasy XIV, we are glad to say that the first screenshots that hail from its console edition have been released.
The apparent release date of Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII of March 29, 2013 as listed by Amazon started to hit the grapevines recently, but thankfully, before things get out of hand, Square Enix has stepped forward to refute the listed release date, although they did stress the fact that Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII itself is still due for a release next year. I guess Amazon’s update with the March 29th release date for next year was nothing more than a placeholder, but it would be better to just mention that the release falls under the “To Be Announced” category instead of raising up hopes and false alarms. We are not quite sure ourselves if Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII will arrive next year though, as Famitsu did report last month that the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game remains at 30% complete.
