THEATRHYTHM FINAL BAR LINE Features

Memmory of Final Fantasy Revived through music
In 2012, THEATRHYTHM FINAL FANTASY was released as the first music game in the FINAL FANTASY series.
This rhythm action game is packed with musical gems carefully selected from titles ranging from FF1 to the latest numbered title, as well as remakes,
side stories and spin–offs, and even various soundtrack CDs.
The THEATRHYTHM series is characterized by its simple controls where players press buttons in time with moving Triggers,
as well as its cute stylized FF characters, rhythm action–driven RPG battles, and beautiful cut scenes.
Since the first game, many songs have been added to the series, expanding the scope of play and bringing the series to a variety of platforms.
