Beloved Capcom JRPG Comes To GOG Preservation Program After 25 Years

Revisiting the classic: PS1 JRPG masterpiece "Breath of Fire IV"

"Breath of Fire IV" was first released on the PS1 platform in 2000 and was transplanted to PC several years later. Like other works in the series, this game follows the protagonist Ryu on an adventure across the fantasy world, full of magic, dragon power, princess and more exciting elements. As a classic turn-based JRPG, it is loved by many game enthusiasts.

It is worth mentioning that "Breath of Fire IV" has a unique artistic style, combining pixel-style characters with a fully rendered 3D background, and the enemy's design also incorporates pixel and 3D polygonal elements. This unique visual effect is still impressive today.

The following are excerpts from the GOG page user comments:

"I'm almost crying! My favorite game is finally back! A few days before the wedding, it feels like a dream." - Xavelrie

"I miss this series so much! More than 20 years have passed, and the series is now almost forgotten... It's a must-play. Breath of Fire IV and Breath of Fire III are legendary excellent JRPGs, full of charm and great characters. I highly recommend this game...it's like a deceased friend back to me." - kakiss4

"I have only played this game once on PSX, but it holds a special place in my heart." - kakiss4

As for improvement, note that this is more like a ported version, updated to run better on modern PCs and should not be considered a remake. However, it also has some minor updates and bug fixes, such as support for modern controllers, full compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11, improved DirectX rendering, window mode, and more.

Since Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter on PS2 in 2002, Capcom hasn't launched a new Breath of Fire game again, unless you count the mobile phone-only free game branch launched a few years ago. So far, this year has been awesome for classic JRPG fans!
