Final Fantasy is a series of high fantasy and steampunk role-playing games developed and published by Square Enix. Although most Final Fantasy installments are stand-alone stories with different settings and main characters, they feature similar elements that define the franchise. Recurring elements include plot themes, character names, and game mechanics. Plots center on a group of heroes battling a great evil while exploring the characters' internal struggles and relationships. It is one of the most commercially successful role-playing franchises of all time.

Trophy-wise, most Final Fantasy games require considerable effort to platinum. The games themselves are long, they typically feature quite difficult superbosses and post-game content that must be completed, and they often feature tricky mini-games that must be mastered.
