About the Game

The first fully fledged Action RPG in the mainline Final Fantasy series.
An epic dark fantasy world where the fate of the land is decided by the mighty Eikons and the Dominants who wield them. This is the tale of Clive Rosfield, a warrior granted the title “First Shield of Rosaria” and sworn to protect his younger brother Joshua, the dominant of the Phoenix. Before long, Clive will be caught up in a great tragedy and swear revenge on the Dark Eikon Ifrit, a mysterious entity that brings calamity in its wake.

Titanic Clashes - When rival Dominants come head to head, epic battles between their Eikons ensue!

Eikonic Action - Clive utilizes the powers of multiple Eikons in breakneck battle!

From Strength to Strength

A plethora of powerful swordplay techniques and Eikonic abilities lie within Clive's remit—and it is up to you to decide which ones you wish to learn or upgrade. If you're having trouble choosing, upgrades can be unlocked automatically.


Story-focused mode is recommended for those players who are less comfortable with action games and wish to focus more on the game's story elements. In this mode, Clive will automatically evade some attacks, and epic Eikonic combos can be triggered with simple button presses. Action-focused mode, where Clive's every action is controlled by the player, is available for those who are confident in their skill—or want to test it.

Review Note:

I tried to play the game with Heroic Game Launcher since I did not have crossover. I used Game Porting Toolkit 3.0. Please note that initial 15-20 mins are required to the compilation of shaders. The game runs very well, on low settings using D3D Metal. However, I would strongly advice to pick up a model with 16GB RAM or above (24/32GB would be most recommended). I got 50-60 FPS on gameplay, but note that the game forces a hard lock on the cinematics to 30 FPS, so its not hardware fault, its the game encoding (refer mods to remove 30 FPS cinematic lock). The game also supports AMD FSR 3.1 and Frame Generation which are CRUCIAL for the game to hit above 50 FPS, or else except around 10-15 FPS. Please note that this game is quite demanding, even modern gaming laptops (RTX 4050 and 5050) also struggle to play it on high settings.
