Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Square Enix originally for the Sony PlayStation Portable. The game is an updated version of Final Fantasy Tactics for the PlayStation video game console, which was originally released in 1997. The game is a departure from traditional Final Fantasy titles in that it is fully turn-based; it makes no use of an Active Time Battle system. The War of the Lions is the second announced game in Square Enix's "Ivalice Alliance" promotional campaign of video games set in the Ivalice fictional world. The first is Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings and the third is Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift. Ivalice has technology in line with the late medieval era of human history along with the typical magic and supernatural abilities found in most Final Fantasy games. Players control a mercenary named Ramza who finds himself embroiled in a civil war and an ancient demonic evil that has begun to take hold over the world. A noble by birth, he is forced to re-evaluate his opinion of commoners when his lowborn best friend starts a revolution against the ruling powers of Ivalice. |
There are two components for playing a psp Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions rom on your PC. The first component is the emulation program which can imitate the psp OS and software.
The second component is the Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions rom itself to play on the emulator.
Step 1: you can start by downloading a reliable and bug free emulator. We’d suggest PPSSPP – it’s open source, fast and one of the most frequently updated.
Once you have finished downloading PPSSPP, extract the downloaded .zip file to a location, for example your Desktop. After, double click the PPSSPPWindows.exe file in order to start the emulator.
Your emulator will now be ready to play Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions rom. But now you’ll need to find the correct ROMs online. A ROM is essentially a virtual version of the game that needs to be loaded into the emulator.
Step 2: return to PPSSPP and hit File > Open. Navigate to the downloaded .exe file and double click it to open it. The game will now run on the emulator and you can play the game freely.
Tip: Saving games on an emulator functions a little differently. The integrated save system will not save your progress.
Instead, you’ll need to click File > Save State and then choose an empty slot. You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game.
When playing in the future and you want to continue from your saved state, you can use File > Load State to load up the game from exactly where you last saved it.
