Akihiko Yoshida has been at Final Fantasy developers Square Enix since 1995, when he joined Squaresoft, one of the companies (along with Enix) that merged to create the RPG powerhouse.
In that time he's worked on a ton of Final Fantasy games, the most prominent of them being Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Tactics and Final Fantasy XIV.
Yoshida works primarily as a character designer, so it's this we're going to focus on in the gallery above, highlighting some of the best pieces he's produced for games like FFXII, Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions and Final Fantasy III DS, as well as some of his other works, like Vagrant Story and Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together.
