Getting here has been quite a struggle. Back in May 2019, Yen Press confirmed it would release the 25th anniversary novel on January 21, 2020. However, it didn’t quite meet that release date and was pushed back a few times to August. Now that Yen Press showed an actual physical copy, its debut seems assured.

Final Fantasy: Memory of Heroes contains three short stories based on Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, and Final Fantasy III. Essentially, it is a novelization of each game. The first story focuses on the original four heroes of light, the second on the Wild Roses’ rebellion against the Palamecian Empire, and the third on the four children heading out to save the world. It was written by Takashi Umemura.

Final Fantasy: Memory of Heroes will make its English debut on August 18, 2020 and cost $14. As for other Final Fantasy books, the Final Fantasy XIV art book reprints will arrive in 2021.
