Video: Final Fantasy IV new battle video

After Final Fantasy III on the handheld captured the original video game’s essence, upcoming Final Fantasy IV shows much promise in making Dark Knight Cecil’s adventure much more epic. We’ve found a gameplay video of Final Fantasy IV that makes the point clearer.

Characters and monsters look as detailed as the Nintendo DS hardware can dish out, while the world they inhabit look similar to FFIII.

We know you can’t wait to see it in action, so here’s the embed:
