Item Description
For sixteen years, Final Fantasy III was the missing piece of the series for English-speaking players. The 1990 Famicom original never left Japan (the SNES game sold in North America as Final Fantasy III was actually Final Fantasy VI), and this Nintendo DS remake from Matrix Software and Square Enix was the first time the real thing was officially released in the West. It was no simple port, either. The whole adventure was rebuilt in full 3D with character designs by Akihiko Yoshida, and the original's four nameless youths became real characters, Luneth, Arc, Refia and Ingus, each with a personality and backstory woven into a rewritten script.
The story begins when an earthquake drops Luneth into a cave beneath his village of Ur, where he finds the Wind Crystal and is charged with restoring a world being swallowed by darkness. From there the journey grows enormously, from the Floating Continent to the vast world below, with airships such as the Nautilus and the Invincible, allies including Desch, Aria and Cid, and a final confrontation with the Cloud of Darkness. Nobuo Uematsu's score, rearranged for the DS, includes the soaring overworld theme Eternal Wind.
The heart of the game is its job system. Everyone starts as a Freelancer, and as the crystals grant new jobs you can turn the party into Knights, Black Mages, Dragoons, Ninjas, Sages, Dark Knights and more, swapping freely to suit the dungeon ahead. Several stretches of the adventure are built around a specific job or spell, including caves you can only enter after shrinking the party with Mini, so experimenting with lineups is part of solving the world rather than an optional extra. The DS version keeps the old-school challenge, with bosses that punish a careless party.
Final Fantasy III was where the series' job system was born, the idea that Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy Tactics would later build entire games around. This remake was also the first of Matrix Software's 3D DS remakes, the line that continued with Final Fantasy IV. As the version that finally brought the game to English-speaking players, with a cast and story to match its classic structure, it is the definitive way to see where Final Fantasy's love of jobs and classes began.
