Final Fantasy is a Japanese multimedia (predominately video game) franchise created by Hironobu Sakaguchi, and is owned and developed by Square Enix, formally Square. The core series consists of 15 roleplaying games. The series was created in 1987 as a last ditch effort by Sakaguchi and was never expected to a critical success. Prior to the Square Enix merger, Final Fantasy rivaled the Dragon Quest series.

One of the defining features of Final Fantasy is that each main game is unrelated to any other besides sharing some character names and other elements that have become synonymous with Final Fantasy games. This trend started with Final Fantasy II as Final Fantasy was not expected to be a hit and therefor the plot ended itself, leaving no room for a normal sequel. This trend has been broken since, but only for a few fan favorite games and a number of non-main series titles.

As with several fantasy role-playing games, it utilizes spells, and the main villain/final boss generally becomes nigh-omnipotent with a new form.

The games generally deliver messages covering conservative, liberal, and politically neutral values, depending on the story. Magic is a prominent feature in every Final Fantasy game.
