The 2D pixel recreation of the classic title also features a real-time Active Time Battle (ATB) system on top of the deep and rich narrative, as well as various convenience updates. This includes redrawn graphics and wonderfully rearranged soundtracks, which have been overseen by Nobuo Uematsu - the original composer - himself. Controller and touch controls have also been improved, with a modernized UI plus auto-battle functions to adapt to the mobile space.

This comes with quality-of-life improvements such as the bestiary, an illustration gallery, and a music player. And finally, to the delight of mobile gamers out there, there will also be a function to save at any time for on-the-go players.

Final Fantasy IV is available to download on the App Store and on Google Play for a price tag of $17.99. You can also visit the official Final Fantasy pixel remaster series website to stay updated on all the latest developments.
