THE BUZZ: Good news for Final Fantasy fans as Square-Enix has announced that Final Fantasy V will be hitting the PlayStation Store this week.

Sony describes that the plot as, “centered around a group of four strangers brought together by circumstance to save the Crystals that have mysteriously begun shattering one by one. Eventually it is revealed the one behind the phenomenon is the villain Exdeath, as part of a plan to release himself from his imprisonment and to gain the power of the Void, a realm of nothingness, which could bestow absolute power on one able to resist being absorbed by it. The four thus turn their attentions to defeating Exdeath and stopping the Void’s unstable energies from consuming their world.”

EGM’s TAKE: Are you ready for some more 16-bit action? Almost 20 years after release and still going strong.
