Final Fantasy IV, formerly known as Final Fantasy II in its initial western SNES release, is a role-playing video game published and developed by Square in 1991.
Introducing characters with preset classes, a focus on story and cinematic events, and the Active Time Battle system, where the battle progresses as time goes on instead of by turns, it largely influenced the course of future FF games.
An Easy Type version was later released, partially based on the much easier and simplified American release.
