Final Fantasy Legends

No, it's not the one we're thinking of...

A mobile phone spin-off game of the jaw-breakingly popular Final Fantasy series.

Like as Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, the game is released in an episodic format. It also uses a Job System as a base of its battles. The story begins with a great world war ended by the efforts of the Avalon Empire. In the present, two groups of youths meet each other: a group from a small, peaceful country, and a group from the harsh northern mountains riding an airship. When they meet, the Crystals give off a large burst of light around the world, and then the world is split in light and darkness. The game focuses on two different groups, the "Warriors of Light" consisting of a boy named Sol and his friends, and the "Warriors of Darkness" consisting of another boy named Nacht and his companions.

Not to be confused with the Final Fantasy Legend.

The Japanese site can be found here.

An IPhone release was announced in September 2011, and an international release in summer 2012 will occur under the name Final Fantasy Dimensions.
