Final Fantasy VIII Steam Altergift

About this game

War, rivalry and a strange dream

Final Fantasy VIII takes place during a war between Galbadia and Dollet. Squall Leonhart, a disciplined but solitary cadet, clashes with hot-headed Seifer. A chance encounter with free-spirited Rinoa changes Squall’s outlook, while dreams of Galbadian soldier Laguna Loire unfold alongside a sorceress’s influence over Galbadia’s powerful figures.

Included game and launcher features

This version includes Chocobo World, playable from the FFVIII launcher. By meeting specific conditions in the main game, you can synchronise data between the two games. Magic Booster adds 100 of each listed spell to your inventory. The spells are Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, and Aero; Cura, Curaga, Fira, Blizzara, and Thundara; and Cure, Sleep, Blind, Silence, Berserk, Bio, Esuna, Confuse, Break, and Zombie.

Battle and speed options

High Speed Mode fast-forwards scenes, including cutscenes, movies and battles, at speeds that average about 5 times normal speed; the supplier cautions that it may crash on some computers. Battle Assistance keeps the ATB gauge and HP full and makes Limit Breaks always available, though characters still die if damage exceeds their HP. Other launcher commands include 9,999 damage for specified attacks, maximum level and AP for acquired G.F., and maximum magic stocks and gil, each with the supplier’s stated usage limits.
