All The 'Final Fantasy' Announcements & Release Dates For The Franchise's 30th Anniversary
Nicole T.The game franchise "Final Fantasy" is celebrating its 30th anniversary in December this year. Despite the event being months away, Square Enix has decided to set out its plans for the franchise's birthday, starting with a banner. Apart from that, different news and announcements will be made regarding the titles in the series.
For the banner, Square Enix chose a simple design, with the series' iconic Chocobos and a lone Moogle on what seemed like crystal. "Final Fantasy 30th Anniversary" is then written across the picture, in typical "Final Fantasy" style. A "Since 1987" was also placed on the banner. According to RPG Site, it was created by Yoshitaka Amano.
