The Final Fantasy series is a media franchise created by Hironobu Sakaguchi and owned by Square Enix which includes of; video games; motion pictures and other merchandise. Final Fantasy started out as Square's final game, as it was bankrupt and going out of business. However, the game became very popular, saving the company. The franchise has since branched out into other popular genres and platforms, such as tactical RPGs, a massively multi player online role-playing game, and games for mobile phones. Since March 2007, there are twenty-eight games in the franchise—including twelve numbered games (Main) and many spin-off titles. The series has made the release of three different Animated Films and Adaptations, two full-length CGI films, and several printed adaptations.

Most of Final Fantasy installments have their own unique independent stories (the numbers after the title refers more to volumes than sequels), however, they feature common features that define the games. Such features include Strong creatures, character names, airships and character classes. The series has become popular by using many features that are now widely used in console RPGs, and it is well known for its visuals, music, and innovation,such as the inclusion of full motion videos, photo-realistic character models, and orchestrated music by Nobuo Uematsu. The series have been commercially and critically successful; it is the fourth-best-selling video game franchise, with more than 80 million units sold as of December 2007. Many individual titles in series have garnered extra attention and their own positive reception. In addition, the series was awarded a star on the Walk of Game in 2006.
