Final Fantasy IV is a console role-playing game developed and published by Square Co. (now Square Enix) in 1991. The game initially appeared on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and has since been ported by TOSE with minor differences to the Sony PlayStation, the Bandai WonderSwan Color and the Nintendo Game Boy Advance. It was first released in North America as Final Fantasy II, although the original name was restored in later releases. The player takes the role of Cecil, a Dark Knight from the kingdom of Baron, on his journey to save the world from the evil Golbez. Struggling to prevent Golbez from acquiring powerful Crystals, Cecil learns of his heritage and travels through three realms to battle Golbez's minions. His lover, best friend and other warriors join him for the adventure.

Final Fantasy IV introduced innovations that became staples of the Final Fantasy series and role-playing games in general. Its "Active Time Battle" system was
used in five subsequent Final Fantasy games. Its character-driven plot, use of the new technologies (such as Mode 7) and critically acclaimed score by Nobuo Uematsu have prompted critics to consider Final Fantasy IV one of the greatest games of all time.

Glitches

255 of Any Weapon for Cecil
First, equip any type of arrows to Cecil's right hand and any type of bow to his left hand. You must also have the weapon called "Avenger". Then enter a battle. View Cecil's equipment by pressing up on the Item's list. Then, select the arrows and put it in an empty slot. Select the bow and also put it in an empty slot. Then, select the slot in Cecil's left hand and put the Avenger in it. Let Cecil finish off the enemies. Then, open up the menu and select equip. You will notice an odd symbol on Cecil's right hand. De-equip the Avenger. Now, select Cecil's right hand and put in the weapon you want to multiply by 255. Then, de-equip the weapon. In your items list, you should have Cecil's weapon with a weird symbol next to it. That symbol symbolizes 255.

Item Duplication
You will only be able to duplicate items that can be held in the Left Hand or Right Hand. A great way to get loads of Excaliburs to throw. Go into battle and select an empty slot in your item list. Keep pressing UP until you get to the equipment list for the Left and Right Hand. Select the item that you want to duplicate, then escape from the battle by holding L+R. Open up the menu and go to the character equipment. Re-equip your item. You will notice it has a 2 next to it. De-Equip it and then Re-equip it, to split it in half.

Skip Sealed Cave
In any version of FFIV, you can skip the entire Sealed Cave sequence and get the crystal early. As soon as Rydia rejoins your party and you have full control over your characters (out of battle), cast warp. You will be in a crystal chamber with a crystal on the pedestal. Take it! Now, all you have to do is enter the Sealed Cave to trigger the next part of the story. Of course, this means that if you still want to level and loot, you're going to be doing it short a party member…

Here's the ending cutscene of one of the best games in the Final Fantasy series:
