You may remember a few months ago when Square Enix brought Final Fantasy Tactics to the iPhone, and said that an iPad version would follow shortly afterward. It turns out that in Square Enix’s world, “shortly afterward” means “in about six months.” Whatever the reason, the game is finally here.

Final Fantasy Tactics for iPad resolves some of the main issues with the iPhone version, such as play speed and sensitive touch controls. The game has also received a minor graphical upgrade—emphasis on the minor. Of course, Final Fantasy Tactics is 15 years old, so it’s sort of expected that it will look a bit dated, even on the iPad.

If you’re a fan of the franchise or the Tactics series, you can pick up Final Fantasy Tactics on the iTunes Store for – seriously - $17.99. Not sure why exactly Square Enix thinks its games deserve such a higher price than pretty much every other game on the market, but there you have it.

Would you pay nearly $20 for an iPad game, even an admittedly very good one?
