Final Fantasy VI

Final Fantasy VI is a game in the series. At the time, three of the five preceding games in the series had not been released in the US, so it was released in the U.S. as Final Fantasy III. With the release of Final Fantasy Anthology it has been correctly renumbered as the sixth game for all regions.

One of the most notable and identifying elements within the game is the presence of powerful beings called Espers.

Story
 "The ancient War of the Magi... When its flames at last receded, only the charred husk of a world remained. Even the power of magic was lost.

In the thousand years that followed, iron, gunpowder, and steam engines took the place of magic, and life slowly returned to the barren land...

Yet there now stands one who would reawaken the magic of ages past, and use its dread power as a means by which to conquer all the world...

...Could anyone truly be foolish enough to repeat that mistake?"
