FINAL FANTASY V in IOS

The Ultimate Pixel Remaster

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

86/100

Final Fantasy V is often overlooked in favor of its more story-heavy successors, but in terms of pure gameplay mechanics, it is arguably the best of the pixel era. The expanded Job System is a playground for theorycrafters, allowing you to combine passive abilities from one job with the active commands of another. This Pixel Remaster makes that system shine with a modernized UI that makes managing your party's various builds much more intuitive.

The story is a lighthearted but high-stakes adventure that feels like a classic Saturday morning cartoon in the best way possible. The colorful pixel art perfectly captures the whimsical tone, and the rearranged soundtrack—specifically 'Battle on the Big Bridge'—is pulse-pounding. If you love deep character customization and tactical turn-based combat, FFV is the highlight of the Pixel Remaster series. It’s pure, unadulterated RPG fun.
