Two soldiers and a mind-controlled “witch” go to the city of Narshe after rumors that a frozen supernatural entity (called an Esper) was apparently unearthed there. The mighty and foolish Gestahl Empire is dangerously trying to gain control of that mysterious power once more to spread their dominance further. But, as a newcomer to the title? I can safely say that, like a Brachiosaurus’ Snort in the World of Ruin, the pixel remastered version of FFVI blew me well-and-truly away!įinal Fantasy VI sets its stage in an epic, sweeping fashion: the narrative quickly explains the devastating impact a horrific war involving powerful magic had on the world. Of course, that was before the Pixel Remasters of the original six Final Fantasies were released, providing me a chance to play FFVI at long last! Having never played another version of the game for comparison, I can’t tell you in this review whether this definitive version is ultimately worth investing in compared to other versions. Despite my personal gaming goal to play all the main Final Fantasy installments, FFVI always remained that one unreachable lingering note in my gaming backlog. Truth be told, I was constantly distracted by other PS1 games when FFVI was rereleased on that console, and I didn’t have a Game Boy Advance to play that version either. To be fair, I only got into RPGs during the PlayStation era and Final Fantasy VII, so I naturally missed out on the initial western release as Final Fantasy III on the SNES. Though I’ve often heard excellent things about it, the much-lauded Final Fantasy VI constantly eluded me.
