Artwork of a zombie from Final Fantasy II.
The Zombie (ゾンビ, Zonbi?) is a recurring enemy in the Final Fantasy series. They are a common type of undead enemy and as such are almost always weak to Holy and Fire elemental attacks and spells. Some curative spells and items, such as Cure and Potion, have a reverse effect when used on them, and usually revival items and magic such as Phoenix Downs and Raise defeat them instantly. They are usually rather weak enemies.
Appearances[]
Final Fantasy[]
Zombies are undead enemies. Dia and Fire are good damage dealers. They appear in Marsh Cave, often found in groups with other undead enemies.
Final Fantasy II[]
Zombies show up in several locations all around the world as a random encounter. It is an undead creature, and is thus weak to Fire spells, while absorbing Death spells. It tends to appear in small groups, but only boasts a meager physical attack, so it does not present a significant threat.
Final Fantasy III[]
Zombies are found in the Sealed Cave and may inflict the Poison status on the party.
Final Fantasy IV[]
The Zombie can be found in the Underground Waterway. Tellah's Fire and Cura magic works well against them.

Final Fantasy XIV[]
Zombies are an occasional undead enemy seen near ruins, particularly in Thanalan. They typically fight with the same tactics as living members of the other races or beastmen.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance[]
The Zombie and Ghoul are undead enemies. Once they are KO'd, they will revive themselves in a matter of three turns unless the battle is won or their units are permanently removed with special abilities. They are weak to Fire and Cure spells. They are less dangerous than the other undead enemies, the Vampire, having no teleportation abilities and less-than spectacular HP and movement stats.
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift[]
Zombies are a species of enemy and a specific enemy. They are undead creatures, and so they revert to tombstones when their HP reaches 0. Zombies are the least mobile of all the undead classes, but they do have some long-ranged attacks to make up for it.
