One gamer had a bit of trouble determining exactly which Final Fantasy game they were getting ready to play after coming across a Super Nintendo cartridge with a label that featured elements from multiple entries in Square Enix’s long-running RPG series. No longer a single-player-only franchise, Square Enix recently announced that the MMO series entry Final Fantasy 14 is receiving long-overdue upgrades to its servers.
Debuting in Japan in 1987 with the first Final Fantasy game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Square Enix’s RPG series would grow to become one of the most recognizable franchises in gaming and serve as an entry point to the genre for millions of players. With nearly every entry in the long-running franchise featuring an entirely new setting and cast of characters, Final Fantasy games have featured worlds ranging from high fantasy kingdoms to steampunk-inspired cityscapes. While some titles like the massively successful Final Fantasy 7 managed to gain a larger following than others, nearly every entry in the franchise has managed to establish a dedicated fanbase.
