If you’re a fan of classic JRPGs, Apple Arcade has exciting news for you.

Apple’s subscription gaming service will bring these beloved games with exclusive features tailored for mobile devices.

Experience a revitalised Final Fantasy IV

Releasing on December 9, Final Fantasy IV (3D Remake)+ has stunning updated graphics, smoother gameplay, and voice acting for pivotal event scenes. Initially released in 1991, this iconic entry in the Final Fantasy series was the first to introduce the much-loved Active Time Battle (ATB) system. The Remake retains its compelling story and memorable characters while enhancing the experience for modern players. Whether revisiting the game or playing for the first time, this version promises an engaging journey.

Trials of Mana+ arrives in January

Whether you’re drawn in by the thrilling combat or the enchanting story, this updated version is tailored for new and long-time fans.

In addition to these two iconic games, Apple Arcade will feature other Square Enix favourites. A remaster of the original Final Fantasy+ and Final Fantasy IV: The After Years will soon join the lineup. The latter continues the story of Final Fantasy IV, introducing new heroes like Ceodore, the son of Cecil and Rosa, alongside returning favourites.

Apple Arcade isn’t stopping there. Over the coming months, you can expect a mix of new games, exclusive releases, and award-winning App Store titles.
