“Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions” To Be Released On iPhone August 4th
According to Famitsu, one of the best strategy RPG games of our generation, Final Fantasy Tactics, will be hitting the iPhone app store later this week on August 4th in Japan. It will be priced at ¥1,800. Though the game is only for the iPhone (3GS and 4 versions), it is expected to be compatible with the iPad in the Fall.
If you’re curious about how FF Tactics manages on the iPhone’s touchscreen, the video above shows gameplay footage. The funtionality seems smooth enough, with the player able to manually rotate classes and place units on the battlefields with their finger, for example. And the soundtrack is still fantastic.
Update: FF Tactics: The War of the Lions will indeed be releasing domestically ($15.99) and in Europe (€12.99) on Aug. 4th as well!
