Description

About the Game

The first fully fledged Action RPG in the mainline Final Fantasy series.
An epic dark fantasy world where the fate of the land is decided by the mighty Eikons and the Dominants who wield them. This is the tale of Clive Rosfield, a warrior granted the title “First Shield of Rosaria” and sworn to protect his younger brother Joshua, the dominant of the Phoenix. Before long, Clive will be caught up in a great tragedy and swear revenge on the Dark Eikon Ifrit, a mysterious entity that brings calamity in its wake.

Titanic Clashes - When rival Dominants come head to head, epic battles between their Eikons ensue!

Eikonic Action - Clive utilizes the powers of multiple Eikons in breakneck battle!

From Strength to Strength

A plethora of powerful swordplay techniques and Eikonic abilities lie within Clive's remit—and it is up to you to decide which ones you wish to learn or upgrade. If you're having trouble choosing, upgrades can be unlocked automatically.


Story-focused mode is recommended for those players who are less comfortable with action games and wish to focus more on the game's story elements. In this mode, Clive will automatically evade some attacks, and epic Eikonic combos can be triggered with simple button presses. Action-focused mode, where Clive's every action is controlled by the player, is available for those who are confident in their skill—or want to test it.

If I could leave an in the middle kind of rating I would, but unfortunately this game mostly feels like a waste of time and leans more towards something you'd probably want to skip instead of play. Now that's not to say

I think it's a great game, overall: Decent story, excellent graphics, great action gameplay and great worldbuilding. Are the maps a little empty? Yes. Is the enemy variety fantastic? No. Are sidequests a bit of a slog,

This is my first Final Fantasy game and JRPG ever. Now I came in with high expectations but mainly I bought this game because I saw it was -60% off. I mainly wanted to play for a story not combat and I suppose that

After 96 Hours in my first playthrough. I Strongly suggest playing through it. This is not a Final Fantasy Game you want to rush through. Take your time. Don't binge the game or you will just fatigue yourself off track
