V-jump scans reveal Final Fantasy IV remake release date
It’s difficult not to get excited after Square Enix break word of a Final Fantasy IV remake on the DS, and it just got better. NeoGAF forum posters are now drooling over two V-jump scans that came from giant Japanese forum 2ch, as Rydia, Yang Fang, and Cecil appear in full CG glory along with the game’s December 20, 2007 Japan release date.
Aside from the text we couldn’t decipher, the pages are loaded with screens taken from the much anticipated title. Battle designer Hiroyuki Ito’s groundbreaking Active Time Battle (ATB) system, which first appeared in the original Final Fantasy IV, is back to bring DS owners a fresh turn-based experience.
As we heard before, the bottom screen will be in full use during battle by displaying the help window. In-game character models look very similar to Final Fantasy III‘s reincarnation to the DS, but magic effects seem more spectacular this time around.
With other new features like automapping intact, Japanese gamers definitely have something to be excited about this Christmas season. Our eyes are peeled for any North American release, so watch this space for any updates.
