FINAL FANTASY VI in IOS

The Ultimate Pixel Remaster

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

92/100

Final Fantasy VI is widely considered the pinnacle of the 2D era, and this Pixel Remaster is a masterpiece in its own right. The most impressive addition is the reimagined opera scene; it now features cinematic staging and actual vocal performances in multiple languages, which is a stunning upgrade that elevates the emotional stakes of Celes' story. The pixel art for the characters and the grotesque, multi-tiered final boss is the most detailed in the remaster series.

The 'Magicite' system, which allows all characters to learn spells and gain stat bonuses, remains one of the best progression mechanics in RPG history. Every member of the massive cast feels unique and essential to the sweeping, operatic narrative. With the added gameplay boosts and the convenience of mobile play, there is simply no better way to experience Kefka's descent into madness and the struggle of the Returners. It is an essential purchase for any RPG fan.
