| |
| '''''Final Fantasy II''''' is the second installment of the ''[[Final Fantasy (series)|Final Fantasy]]'' series. The game was developed and published by [[Square]] for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|Famicom]] in 1988, exclusively in Japan. A North American localization of the original Famicom released was planned but cancelled partway into the translation process. Remakes of the game received standalone releases for the [[WonderSwan Color]], [[PlayStation Portable]], and [[iOS]]/[[Android]] phones. As neither this game nor ''[[Final Fantasy III]]'' were initially released outside Japan, ''[[Final Fantasy IV]]'' was originally released in North America as ''Final Fantasy II'', so as not to confuse players. The game introduced two recurring elements of the ''Final Fantasy'' franchise: [[Chocobo]] and a character named [[Cid]].

| A few compilations bundle ''Final Fantasy II'' with the first game, ''[[Final Fantasy]]'', including ''[[Final Fantasy I∙II]]'' (Famicom), ''[[Final Fantasy Origins]]'' ([[PlayStation]]), and ''[[Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls]]'' ([[Game Boy Advance]]). The ''Final Fantasy Origins'' version was the first time where ''Final Fantasy II'' released outside of Japan. The PlayStation version of ''Final Fantasy II'' also received a standalone release in Japan, as well as the first ''Final Fantasy''.

| {{FULLPAGENAME}} does away with the first game's leveling system and instead makes stat increases derived from the kind of command used and loss of resources: physical weapons increase [[Strength]], [[Agility]], and that weapon's skill level; black and white magic spells increase a specific stat [[Intelligence]] and [[Spirit]], respectively) as well as [[Magic]]; HO and MP are increased from losing either one, Stamina also increasing after sustaining damage. The game also removes traditional classes in gameplay, making customization far reaching.
