After a long wait of 25 years, fans of classic RPGs can rejoice as Capcom's beloved title, Breath of Fire IV, makes a triumphant return to PC. Originally launched on the PlayStation in Japan and North America in 2000, and in Europe a year later, the game saw a PC port in Europe and Japan in 2003. Now, thanks to GOG's ongoing Preservation Program, this iconic game has been meticulously updated for modern PCs and is available DRM-free on their platform.
In Breath of Fire IV, players follow the journey of Ryu, a protagonist with the unique ability to transform into a dragon, as he joins forces with other warriors to thwart an emperor's plan to obliterate the world. The narrative, coupled with engaging gameplay, has kept fans enthralled for decades.
