Logos of Final Fantasy

The logos for each Final Fantasy game possess a similar style. Starting with Final Fantasy IV, all game logos feature the same basic layout. The older games also received logos in the same style when they were re-released. The name of the font used to write the title is Runic MT Condensed.

Main Series

 * Final Fantasy

The logo for the original Final Fantasy shows the title in a simple light blue font with semi-transparent characters; notably, it was the only time the title was given entirely in katakana, rather than primarily English letters with a kana subtitle. The English logo is done in a custom font, slightly bolded, in red. The logo of the re-releases of Final Fantasy features an Amano drawing of the Warrior of Light in light blue. In Dissidia, the Warrior's appearance and pose during his EX Burst mimic this logo's artwork.


 * Final Fantasy II

The original logo for Final Fantasy II is done in a highly colorful italic style: the writing is done in pale-purple fading into bright blue, the edges the letters are rimmed with gold, while the numerals are in a medium-to-light blue color. The whole is styled vaguely in the shape of a dragon, emphasized more by the red reptilian eye incorporated into the first letter. The logo of the re-releases of Final Fantasy II features an Amano drawing of The Emperor in pink.


 * Final Fantasy III

The logo for Final Fantasy III features the title in an italic orange font, and three crystal columns in the background. The letters are styled almost exactly like the previous game, only this time they are all-gold. The logo of the Nintendo DS re-release of Final Fantasy III features an Amano drawing of an unnamed warrior of light holding two swords in greens and blues. In Dissidia, the Onion Knight strikes this pose during the Ninjutsu version of his EX Burst.


 * Final Fantasy IV

The logo of Final Fantasy IV features an Amano drawing of Kain Highwind in purple, posing in a shape of number 4 in Arabic numeral. The color of the text matches the color of the drawing. Notably, this logo marks several things: it adopts what would become the "standard" design of the title logo, with the title in English and a katakana subscript and incorporating a piece of Amano artwork between or near (in this case, between) the "Final" and "Fantasy"; it adopts the "standard" font for the series going forward, abandoning the stylized italics of the previous logos; and the font also seems significantly influenced by the font of the American edition of Final Fantasy I, with a similar A, N, I and L (though with less elaborate Fs and a much narrower T). This overall design would become the standard for nearly every single release to follow.

The logo of the North American release was done in a gilded style in a typeface similar to the English logo for Final Fantasy, but with somewhat less elaborate Fs (though they retain the distinctive tapered tail), narrower Ns and As, and most prominently a "T" which takes the form of a sword. The numeral was also changed from "IV" to "II" to avoid continuity issues. The logo for the Wonderswan Color release of Final Fantasy IV incorporated a gradient. This was the basis for Final Fantasy IV Advance's logo. The Japan-exclusive mobile phone port features a different shade of purple.

The sword model that replaces the "T" in the North American localization of Final Fantasy IV (written as Final Fantasy II) is identical to that in the logo of Final Fantasy Adventure, Final Fantasy Legend II, and Final Fantasy Legend III, right down to the lens flare.


 * Final Fantasy V

The logo of Final Fantasy V features an Amano drawing of a Wind Drake in purple and light blue. The text is a dark blue instead of the traditional solid black, and the "V" strays from the traditional font style.


 * Final Fantasy VI

The logo of Final Fantasy VI shows an Amano drawing of protagonist Terra Bradford atop a Magitek Armor, depicting an event when she was in the thrall of the Gestahlian Empire. The image of the armor and its rider is in black and red, while the text all in black. The logo of the North American release, done in the exact style of Final Fantasy "II"'s English logo, changed "VI" to "III" to avoid continuity issues.

Interestingly, while the box of the SNES release retains the "sword T" that had been used in "II", Adventure and the Legend releases, the logo in the game itself is instead a "normal" T with a thin, slightly stretched top which touches the N and A, in a manner reminiscent of the T in the first North American Final Fantasy logo.


 * Final Fantasy VII

The logo of Final Fantasy VII features a drawing of Meteor in varying shades of turquoise. The smaller stone may be a piece of Materia. In Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children the town of Edge has a Meteor monument that resembles the logo. The logo of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is also a stylized version of the original Final Fantasy VII logo. VII also marks the point at which the same logo and numbering was used worldwide.


 * Final Fantasy VIII

The logo of Final Fantasy VIII features a red and orange drawing of Squall embracing Rinoa.


 * Final Fantasy IX

The logo of Final Fantasy IX features a drawing of a Crystal from which all originates in shades of gold. The game number matches the crystal's color.


 * Final Fantasy X

The logo of Final Fantasy X features a drawing of Yuna performing her memorable sending at the Kilika port in a variety of vibrant shades. It is the first to officially bear Amano's signature, visible in the bottom-right corner of the image. Like Final Fantasy V, the "X" strays from the traditional font style. There also exists a scrapped logo from the Square Millennium Event trailer.

Yuna's face is seen on the left, facing the beholder, with her right hand raised upwards, and the profile of a large airship in the background. This image is taken from the 25th Anniversary Ultimania. The logo for the HD remaster is almost identical to the original logo, apart from a bar done in the style of sunlit water beneath the main title, with silver writing superimposed over it.


 * Final Fantasy XI

The logo of Final Fantasy XI features a drawing of a huge army, likely an Allied regiment in the great Crystal War of the past. In its center, the light blue logo features five warriors, each representing a playable race in the game.


 * Final Fantasy XII

The logo of Final Fantasy XII features a drawing of Judge Gabranth in blue and purple, with a peach colored brushstroke of paint on the right. In Dissidia, Gabranth strikes this pose to end his EX Burst. Amano's signature is visible just next to Gabranth's foot in the bottom-left part of the image.


 * Final Fantasy XIII

The logo of Final Fantasy XIII features a drawing of the fallen Cocoon, with a crystallized Fang, Vanille, and Ragnarok holding it in the sky. The crystal pillar supporting Cocoon is replaced with the outline of Serah's pendant. For the first time, in lieu of traditional white, the text is outlined in turquoise to match Amano's artwork.


 * Final Fantasy XIV

The logo of Final Fantasy XIV fittingly features a group of fourteen warriors, both male and female, joined together with various weapons drawn. The number of warriors on the logo is an allusion to the number fourteen. They are shaded in a variety of colors including blue, purple, orange, and red.

For the relaunch, Final Fantasy XIV was remade from the ground up and given a new name, with accompanying changes to the logo. Now called Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, the logo is the same art as the original, but now colored entirely blue, and the subtitle "A Realm Reborn" is in red with the letter O in flames, representing the meteor that sent the world to a new era for the game's relaunch.

During Beta versions of A Realm Reborn, the words "β Version" were appended under the right side the logo in pink. This was removed upon start of the Early Access period.


 * Final Fantasy XV

The logo of Final Fantasy XV features a one-winged woman in flowing robes sleeping with her head resting on her arms (referring to the game's theme song Somnus). Behind her head is a crystal sphere. Twisted round it and showing behind the woman is a serpentine creature (probably Leviathan).

Again, the text is outlined in a color that matches the artwork, which is in various shades of steel-blue through to black. The original Versus XIII logo is identical apart from the text and the coloring, which is done in a far lighter coloring style of light to dark blue.

Spin-offs and sequels

 * Final Fantasy Adventure

The logo for the Japanese release of Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden shows the Seiken word intertwined with a cross-like hilt, with a color scheme and designed similar to Firion's sword from Final Fantasy II. The rest of the title is beneath the design and the whole is shown on an off-white background. The logo of its English release, Final Fantasy Adventure, shows the title with a sword for a "T", done with the same font as Final Fantasy "II"'s English release (down to an identical sword).

The logo of Final Fantasy IV -Interlude- is a simple picture of the typical Final Fantasy IV with -Interlude- written right below it.

By coincidence, the scarf of Rikku's in-game character models have a similar gradient. Amano's signature is visible just to the right of Paine's extended leg. The logo of the Japan-exclusive International + Last Mission version of Final Fantasy X-2 features the same logo with the "International + Last Mission" text imposed on top of it.


 * Final Fantasy Tactics

The logo of Final Fantasy Tactics is a group of soldiers, including a Black Mage, a Ninja, and a Knight. The font is altered, reminiscent of the early North American localizations, again with a sword replacing the first T and with the distinctive taper on the tail of the Fs; the font would become an official Tactics mainstay.


 * Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

The logo of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance is a judgemaster (likely Cid Randell) on his chocobo.
