Final Fantasy XV aiming for a simultaneous worldwide release The Last Remnant , released as an Xbox 360 exclusive in 2008, is a graphically rich RPG known for its unique battle system, which puts players in control of multiple battalions during combat sequences.

Previously, Square Enix released The Last Remnant for mobile devices via Dive In, a pay-for-play subscription service that also hosted a streamed version of Final Fantasy VII . The latest mobile adaptation of The Last Remnant is available as a standalone app priced at 2,000 yen (approximately $16).
