Android and iOS
Final Fantasy XVis almost its own thing at this point. It hasmore side projects and spinoffsthan many AAA franchises just a year into its life cycle, and if I know Square, they aren’t stopping anytime soon.
They aren’t stopping today either, asKing’s Knight: Wrath of the Dark Dragonjust arrived worldwide on iOS and Android. As a recap this is a free-to-play re-imagining of the original 1986 NES gameKing’s Knight, but is somehow jammed into theFinal Fantasy XVuniverse.
It’s neat that they were able to bring a relatively forgotten game back into the fray, but the original is…a not so great shoot ’em up that was disguised as an RPG. It also had a terribly amazing conceit in that you need tobeat the game with all four characterswithout dying to access the last stage/ending. If nothing about this mobile version interests you,it’s worth learning aboutthe NES edition.
