Final Fantasy Games That Deserve Sequels

The Final Fantasy series isn’t a stranger to sequels, as Final Fantasy X, VII, and XIII each received numerous follow-up entries in their respective franchises. Here are the Final Fantasy games we would like to see get sequels.

Final Fantasy games that deserve sequels

While some of the Final Fantasy games in this list do officially have sequels, it’d be nice to see more entries in these individual series. You can check out our small but compact list of FF games we’d love to see sequels, or more entries for, below.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles

While Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles has a sequel and several games set within this franchise, it’d be great to see the series continue. However, with how the Crystal Chronicles Remastered rolled out, it doesn’t seem like we’ll get another entry anytime soon.

That said, a man can dream, and if Square Enix rolled out another multiplayer game in the vein of the original, it could probably be a big hit! Playing games together with friends is easier than ever, and who doesn’t like to do a little bit of dungeon crawling and caravan wrangling as a group?

Dissidia Final Fantasy

With Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia coming to a halt and NT having no new content updates, it seems like Dissidia‘s time is over. But Square Enix could use this as an opportunity to reboot the series as a new kind of fighter.

The sequel could even be an Action-RPG where players get to play as their favorite Final Fantasy protagonists in a narrative set in the Dissidia universe. I’d be up for anything at this point, so long as it isn’t an egregiously monetized mobile game, just to see the series live on.

Final Fantasy Tactics (Advance)

It’s been a hot second since Square Enix has released a tactics-focused Final Fantasy game that isn’t on mobile devices. Final Fantasy Tactics deserves another day in the sun, especially the Advanced series. Full of fun, strategic combat, and really well-written narratives, it’d be great to see Square Enix revisit this series to give new and old fans a taste of just how good these games were.

Final Fantasy Origin: Stranger of Paradise

Yes, Final Fantasy Origin: Stranger of Paradise is more or less a prequel game with a story that ends everything neatly. But the game was just so good, and Jack was such a fantastic character it would be great to see more of him in another story.

Given the way that Final Fantasy VII Remake went under Nomura’s supervision, it wouldn’t be out of pocket to see Stranger of Paradise take a similar route (which I won’t share because of obvious spoilers), assuming this action-focused entry in the franchise got a sequel. Which it totally should.

Theatrhythm

Final Bar Line was definitely one of the best rhythm games I’ve played in a long time, and it’s sad to see the series more or less come to a close. While it doesn’t have a unique story, its RPG mechanics melded with so many unique ways to present rhythm-focused gameplay makes it a stand-out in both genres it occupies. These games are also a great way to showcase just how incredible the music in the Final Fantasy series is, outside of being loads of fun.
