Final Fantasy IV DS
Another FF remake.

by IGN Staff

May 9, 2007 - With a million sales in Japan alone, it's safe to say that no one was expecting Square Enix's Final Fantasy remakes to end with Final Fantasy III. Sure enough, a few days prior to the start of the Square Enix Party, the company has revealed plans for a full remake of the next entry in the series, Final Fantasy IV.

Fully unveiled on the pages of the latest issue of Jump magazine, Final Fantasy IV makes the move to full 3D. We're not sure if it's necessarily using the exact same engine as that of FFIII, although the staff that developed FFIII are overseeing the FFIV conversion.

Square Enix has a few changes planned on top of the visual update. The game will feature new episodes, allowing players to get deeper acquainted with the storyline. Character designs have been completely redone for the title.

A release date has yet to be set for the DS version of FFIV, but we're expecting to see more of the title at the Square Enix Party this weekend. Be sure and check back here at IGNDS.

FF IV is definately one of my favorite in the series, so like the Final Fantasy sleeper I am I will buy this on release day

I still haven't played IV, yet. Same for the rest of the past FF's(I,II, V and VI). Would love to play the SNES or GBA version of this game, but I will check this version out, though.

This is cool, but I probably won't get it. I mean, I just bought a FFIV remake a few years ago.

I saw that and was like cool, but nothing special. I played it on SNES, then PS1, then GBA. Revamped yes, anticipated yes, top of list no.

Kewl. I will propably get it =B

I bought the III remake and loved it.

I'll probably get it since I didn't get the GBA remake. Now, if they plan to do this for FF6.. *then* I'll be angry.

Hahaha, why would you be angry?
For me, I don't need them to revamp the game to be 3D. I would prefer updated graphics, with more of a hand-drawn look of Amano's artwork. Update score, same tracks, better quality though. And and and and and CGI MOVIES FOR THE MOST BREATHTAKING GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

btw, I saw some screens for FF IV remake, but I don't rememeber where. once I find them, I'll post them up here for you guys.

Hmmm... I think it would be a long time before they remake it. As much as I like Final Fantasy IV. It isn't the best Final Fantasy game, and it has already been released in the states a few times.

I'm a nerd, so I have all the Final Fantasy games on the GBA. >< I & II, IV, V, VI, Tactics

I saw the video. I'm actually sorta hyped up for it, but then again there are only so many times I can beat the same RPG...
