Developed by Square Enix · Published by Square Enix
A young man discovers he is the reincarnation of a legendary hero, but the king brands him a threat and sends an army after him. With companions who believe in his identity, he sets out to learn about his past and face a danger to the world.
Travel across continents and oceans, visiting villages, cities, castles, and dungeons. Explore for monsters and discoveries, take on side quests and minigames, and use monster vehicles to reach new areas.
Combat is turn-based, with party members using skills and equipment to shape their roles in battle. Build a team, develop its abilities, and continue through the story as new companions and challenges join the journey.
Many sampled reviews enjoy the classic JRPG structure, memorable companions, and a story that unfolds through a long sequence of towns and adventures. Players also praise the colorful visual style and accessible turn-based battles, with some appreciating the tactical options in skills, equipment, and team builds. Others find the journey too long or grind-heavy, and some criticize repetitive music or a familiar story. A recurring complaint concerns the lack of an upgrade path for owners of this edition when a later edition was released.
