I got some huge and exciting news for those of you who are Final Fantasy fans or lovers and even for those who just like action/RPG games as well. But anyways, the well known App Store and console developer, Square Enix, has just released one of their well known Final Fantasy games — Final Fantasy III — onto the App Store for a whopping price of $15.99 (ouch). Final Fantasy III features:

First released in 1990, Final Fantasy III was the first title in the Final Fantasy series to become a million-seller, establishing once and for all that Square Enix’s classic RPG saga was here to stay.
The full 3D remake released in 2006 duplicated the original’s success, selling over a million copies worldwide.

Final Fantasy III was a hallmark of innovation for the entire series, from the job system that lets characters change classes at any time to the ability to summon powerful creatures such as Shiva and Bahamut.

When darkness falls and the land is robbed of light, four youths are chosen by the crystals to set forth on a journey to save the world.

Game Features

– New and improved 3D visuals and story sequences exclusive to the iPhone/iPod touch

– Smooth, intuitive touch-panel controls specifically tailored to Square Enix’s iPhone RPGs

– Quicker browsing through the monster bestiary and other game records

– New visual designs for the Job Mastery Cards

– Retina Display compatible

As of now, there’s no iPad specific version available (bummer, I know), however, I am guessing one will be released eventually. Even though $15.99 seems like a lot, think of it this way — $15.99 is cheaper than a brand new PS3/XBOX3560 game, cheaper than a new paid of shoes, and if you’re Final Fantasy fan it’s worth it. Final Fantasy III costs $15.99 and weighs in at 208 MB.
