Best Devices To Play Fantasian

Fantasian is an RPG from the creator of Final Fantasy that is currently on Apple Arcade but what are the best devices to play Fantasian on? This guide will take a look at all the devices currently supporting Apple Arcade and you can get a good idea of the best way to play this amazing RPG.

Fantasian was released in April 2021 on Apple Arcade, split into two parts with the second part due to release in late 2021. Immediately upon release it was well received by RPG fans and many have been wanting to get their hands on it. Currently, the only way to play Fantasian is to subscribe to Apple Arcade's service that allows you to play games on any device that supports it.

Apple Arcade subscription currently costs $5/month but it also comes with a 30-day free trial, enough time to finish Fantasian. To use Apple Arcade, you will need a device that supports it, which is currently limited to the Apple ecosystem including iPhones, iPads, iMacs and AppleTV.

You don't need to buy the latest model to run Fantasian. Fantasian even has a 30 FPS mode for devices that are a bit older. The game is an old-school RPG from the likes of early Final Fantasy days with some modern twists and upgrades, so the game should run well on most devices. If you have an old Apple Device, it might be worth seeing if it supports Apple Arcade.

You can find Apple Arcade in the AppStore. You'll need at least Apple's IOS 13 to run Apple Arcade. Don't forget, you can also check out our Fantasian Controller Guide for pairing up a controller to your device.

Apple TV 4K

Apple TV is a device that connects to any smart TV and allows you to stream Apple TV content.
