The gameplay is similar to FFIV and FFVI (our II and III, respectively), but the core of it all is the )ob/Ability system (which is now used in Final Fantasy Tactics, ironically). Like FFIV, the only addition to the game is the all-new opening and ending FMV sequences (what we've seen so far looks fantastic), but still-the game itself, despite being 6 years old, is incredible.įinal Fantasy V is widely believed to be the best all-around game of the series, despite the now-dated graphics and sounds. With last year's rerelease of Final Fantasy IV for the PlayStation in Japan (our Final Fantasy II), it was just a matter of time before Square announced a PS rerelease of FFV. We all knew it was going to happen sooner or later.
