8. Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings
Final Fantasy X famously got a sequel, and Final Fantasy XIII got two. But a lot of people now forget that Final Fantasy XII got one too, just in the form of a 2007 real-time-strategy-style spin-off for the Nintendo DS.
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings reunites much of the charming if slightly tertiary-feeling cast from the series’ controversial, final PlayStation 2 chapter for one more adventure in its distinctive version of Ivalice. The unpausable, stylus-driven RTS battles it’s based around can feel more frantic and spammy than strategic, but the production values are through the roof and if you’re a fan of XII like me, the chance to spend more time in its world soaking up those vibes is reason enough to take this journey. Inessential? Yes. Delightful? More than you might expect. — Alexandra Hall
