Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings review DS

Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings review Nintendo DS

A new Final Fantasy outing is always welcome, and this spin off from the massive RPG strategy is no exception. Following on directly from Final Fantasy XII, Revenant Wings takes you on a voyage of piracy and treasure hunting - as your quest progresses, you'll find yourself swept up in a mix of real-time strategy and RPG. Previous spin-offs from the Final Fantasy series have been disappointing in comparison to the real thing - is this the case for Revenant Wings? Check out our review now to find out.

Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings review for Nintendo DS
Final Fantasy spin-offs always suffer from the same problem: they're not Final Fantasy games. The role-playing series has had its ups and downs, but it's one of the most consistent franchises around. But every time a developer tries to create something from the FF universe, something goes wrong. So, while it's gratifying that Revenant Wings is one of the better examples of such a diversion, it still has a few niggly flaws that prevent it from reaching greatness.

The story follows directly on from Final Fantasy XII, with anorexic space scoundrel Vaan teaming up with chums Penelo, Balthier and Fran to hunt for further treasure – as pirates do. Naturally things aren't quite as simple as digging up the loot and splitting the proceeds, and the four are called into helping some folks in trouble. Then it all turns a bit Heroes of Mana, and you're ushered into a realtime strategy game, with role-playing trappings for the hardcore fans.
