Final Fantasy (Õ¡¤ÊëÕ¡ó¿¸ü, Fainaru Fantaj+?) is a console role-playing game developed and published in Japan by Square (now Square Enix) in 1987 and published in North America by Nintendo of America in 1990. It is the inaugural game in Square's flagship Final Fantasy series. Final Fantasy has been remade for several different video game consoles. The game has frequently been packaged with its follow-up, Final Fantasy II, in collections such as Final Fantasy I-II, Final Fantasy Origins, and Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls.[2]
The story begins with the appearance of the four youths called the "Light Warriors", who each carry one of their world's four elemental orbs, which have been darkened by the four Elemental Fiends. Together, they quest to defeat these evil forces and restore light to the orbs, thus saving the world.
Final Fantasy was one of the most influential and successful role-playing games on the Nintendo Entertainment System, and played a major role in popularizing the genre after Dragon Quest.
