Did you know there was a sequel to Final Fantasy IV released on mobile phones in Japan? It's true! Looks like American gamers will be getting a chance to play it, too, as a synopsis for Final Fantasy IV: The After Years has popped up at the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB). En route to the Wii, the sequel is described as a 2D role-playing game involving -- what else? -- magic crystals. Players adventure across an overworld map and delve into dungeons, getting caught up in turn-based battles along the way with leopards, birds, and monster fish (the worst kind of fish).
Final Fantasy IV: The After Years will be rated "E" for everyone and includes references to alcohol and mild fantasy violence. No release date is available at this time. The fact that it was a mobile phone game in Japan makes a WiiWare release possible.
