what's new in the latest version of FINAL FANTASY IV?

Bringing you the main content of the update.

■ Alterations relating to battles
*Fixes to a bug where enemy action speed would become slower than originally intended in some situations.
*The length of time taken before the first action is made has been reduced for both allied and enemy characters.
*The amount of EXP received from enemies has been slightly reduced overall.

There is a possibility that the above three changes will make battle difficulty feel slightly harder than before.
We are very sorry to make updates that affect the overall game balance in this way, but they are intended to fix bugs to bring the game’s behaviour closer to how it was originally intended, and also to allow new players to experience the game in the best state possible.
Thank you for your understanding.

*The enemy item drop rates have been adjusted so that rarer items are now dropped more frequently.
*Some flying enemies have been animated to hover up and down in the air.
*A visual effect was added where the screen flashes if an allied character’s attack scores a critical hit.
*The time taken when transitioning between screens after escaping from battle has been reduced.

■ Alterations relating to maps and events
*Alterations have been made so that weapons and armour are sorted into attack (or defence) power order within their type category when using the auto-sort function on the menu screen.
