The latest installment in the Final Fantasy franchise, Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings showcases new adventures of the original characters Vaan and Penelo. When the pair discovers Lemures, a floating continent, they meet Llyud, one of the winged race aegyl. They learn that pirates are attacking the continent and threatening to take over. The hopes of the inhabitants of Lemures now rest with Vaan, Penelo and a small group of sky-pirates to defend the skies against this onslaught. Set to a new soundtrack composed by renowned Hitoshi Sakimoto, the adventure is brought to life.

Description

Using Nintendo DS’ touch screen feature, Revenant Wings allows players to maximize the use of the stylus in controlling attacks, executing special moves and activating Gambits. Players also enjoy new cut-scene animation in between action sequences, spanning both screens. A pleasant surprise is that there is a range of more than 50 familiar characters like tonberries and chocobos that players can summon.

    Als absoluter Fan von Strategie- und Rollenspielen hatte es der Titel zugegebenermaßen recht leicht bei mir. Trotzdem: Entwickler Square Enix macht hier einfach verdammt viel richtig. Von der überzeugenden Spielwelt inklusive Story, über das Gameplay bis hin zu Grafik und Sound ist das Ganze ein verdammt stimmiges Gesamtwerk geworden. Nicht nur für Fans der Serie ein absoluter Must-Buy! Read more

    Ultimately though, Revenant Wings proves a solid entry into the RTS genre for the Final Fantasy series. FFXII fans will find loads of it instantly recognisable, including the setting, the characters and the music. And Tactics fans too should be interested - the look of the game is the same and there's a similar sense of satisfaction from completing the various missions. But most importantly, DS owners in general who are looking for something a little different will find... Read more

    Final Fantasy XII was a huge game. Many say that it redefined the Final Fantasy series and prepared it for the next-gen. Almost a year after Final Fantasy XII, we get the sequel (or spinoff depending on how you look at it) that takes place one year after the events of Final Fantasy XII. The story focuses on the young sky-pirate Vaan and best-friend Penelo, who, along with their group of friends, embark on an adventure that has a decidedly smaller scope than that of Final...

    Après le grandiose épisode 12 sur PS2, la portable vedette de Nintendo accueille Vaan et tous ses amis pour une suite sous le signe du RTS. Un an après les évènements de l’opus ps2, nos héros sont devenus de vrais Pirates du Ciel. On retrouve donc le monde d’Ivalice, bien connu depuis Final Fantasy Tactics. Bien que l’aventure nous propose quelques quêtes importantes sur ces terres, le guerrier aegyl Llyud, un homme ailé révolté par le sort infligé à... Read more

    My son wanted this game for his 11th birthday, I wasn't so sure about it. I thought it would be to hard for him to play but it isn't. The graphics are good the storyline is great. It gives a tutorial so anyone can play. The game play is nice and smooth. I would recommend this for anyone. Recommends this product?
