Lightspeed Studios and Square Enix are bringing the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV to mobile, allowing players to embark on an epic Eorzean adventure on their iPhone.
Naoki Yoshida, producer and director of Final Fantasy XIV Online, described the mobile adaptation as a “sister” game that aims to bring the main story and combat of the original to a smaller screen. Non-combat roles such as Disciples of the Land and Hand will also be included.
Final Fantasy XIV Mobile offers both long-time fans and new players the chance to explore Eorzea in a new way. Familiar characters such as Thancred, Tataru, and Nanamo Ul Namo will appear, as well as features such as fishing, the Triple Triad, and chocobo racing.
The development team worked to capture the details of the original game, from the varied landscapes to the range of weather effects. The game also aims to retain the social aspects that made Final Fantasy XIV Online popular, encouraging player interaction without pressure or strict goals.
