With FINAL FANTASY: THE 4 HEROES OF LIGHT, the FINAL FANTASY series is rendered anew as an epic storybook adventure from the creators of the critically acclaimed remakes of FINAL FANTASY III and FINAL FANTASY IV for Nintendo DS. Players enter a lush fairy-tale world featuring illustrations and character designs by art director Akihiko Yoshida (FINAL FANTASY III for DS, FINAL FANTASY XII).
In addition to the game's vibrant artwork, FINAL FANTASY: THE 4 HEROES OF LIGHT introduces several features that are entirely new to the franchise, including the Action Point Combat System, which allows players to unleash their most powerful attacks by saving up action points during battle. Players will also have 28 jobs to choose from and dozens of abilities to master with the new Crown Job System, which dynamically changes the appearance of characters as they are equipped with new weapons and armor.
FINAL FANTASY: THE 4 HEROES OF LIGHT tells the tale of a young boy who sets out on a journey of self-discovery with his friends, only to be tasked with saving the world from an unexpected evil. With both single-player and multiplayer modes, FINAL FANTASY: THE 4 HEROES OF LIGHT challenges players to take on the roles of four endearing characters who do not always see eye to eye. The multiplayer mode allows up to four players to work together and become the Heroes of Light as they travel alongside their friends on a journey to save the world.
Story:
In the small kingdom of Horne, Brandt awakes on the morning of his 14th birthday.
Today is the day he becomes an adult, and the custom of the realm says that he must go to the castle to present himself to the king.
Yet when he arrives at the castle, he finds the king distraught and the youngest princess missing, abducted by the Witch of the North. With no one else to turn to, the king makes a shocking request: will Brandt save the princess?
And thus Brandt's adventure begins...

III and FINAL FANTASY IV.

and character designer Akihiko Yoshida (FINAL FANTASY III for DS, FINAL
FANTASY XII).
