In this review, I'll be taking a look at Final Fantasy II. With the Pixel Remasters now out on consoles, it seems like a perfect time to go back and examening Final Fantasy 2, the blak sheep of the Final Fantasy franchise. I hope this video will help you make the decision on weather or not Final Fantasy II is worth playing in 2023.

Final Fantasy II is a Japanese role-playing video game originally released in 1988 for the Famicom console in Japan. It was later remade for other platforms, including the PlayStation, Game Boy Advance, and mobile devices. The game features a traditional RPG gameplay with a story-driven narrative that follows four young heroes as they embark on a quest to save the world from an evil empire. Unlike its predecessor, Final Fantasy II introduced a unique leveling system where players improve their characters' abilities by using them in battle. The game received critical acclaim for its narrative, characters, and innovative gameplay mechanics, and it's widely regarded as a classic and influential title in the Final Fantasy franchise and the RPG genre as a whole.
