Final Fantasy Legends Brings Classic Final Fantasy To Cell Phones [Update]

Now we know what that Warrior of Light and Darkness trademark was for, it’s another Final Fantasy game.

Final Fantasy Legends: Warrior of Light and Darkness is a throwback to classic Final Fantasy, but it’s a new game. Instead of being in 3D, Final Fantasy Legends has 2D dot graphics. Players also have a party with five characters and a job change system to play with.

Classic Final Fantasy enthusiasts with a keitai can download the game in Japan this September. Plans for a North American release have not been announced. That doesn’t mean all hope is lost! Square Enix ported Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, another old style Final Fantasy game originally for cell phones, to Wii and released it on WiiWare.

Update: Famitsu has screenshots and new details. Final Fantasy Legends much likeFinal Fantasy IV: The After Years is an episodic game.
