The last of the 2D, cartridge-based Final Fantasy games. The game managed to tell an interesting story and provide a large and detailed world to explore, without the assistance of FMV sequences and multiple CDs of storage. Also the first game in the series to appreciably break away from the stock medieval fantasy template. FF6's world blended magic with science fiction. By most people's reckoning, this is one of the two best RPGs released on the SNES (along with the following year's Chrono Trigger). The game was translated into English and gained a large following in the US, although it was never released in its original form in Europe. It was later re-released for the Sony PlayStation with prerendered FMV sequences replacing some of the in-engine cutscenes.
