Square Enix has officially released the highly anticipated iOS port of Final Fantasy V. The game is seeing its iOS debut two decades after the original classic RPG was released to Japanese audiences on pixelated Nintendo consoles.

The plot is the same as it was twenty years ago: “The crystals that bring peace and prosperity to the world – earth, water, fire, and wind – have lost their power and are on the verge of destruction.”

So you’ll have to team up with your hero friends (by fate, of course) and restore peace on Earth.

For only $19.99 / €17.99 (yep, you read that right), you’ll get the chance to relive this childhood classic featuring iBartz and his chocobo companion, Princess Lenna of Castle Tycoon, the pirate captain Faris, and the mysterious Galuf.

The game is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad. It requires iOS 4.3 or later.
