Final Fantasy XII is a console role-playing video game developed and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 2. Released in 2006, it is the twelfth title in the main Final Fantasy series and the last in the series to be released exclusively on the PS2 (not including the expansion sets to FFXI which all got released on PS2 and Final Fantasy 7: Dirge of Cerebus). The game introduced several innovations to the series: battles occur without a transition to a separate screen; a customizable "gambit" system automatically controls the actions of characters; and a "license" system determines which abilities and equipment are used by characters. | Final Fantasy XII is a console role-playing video game developed and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 2.

|Comments=The version used here was the International release with a translation patch applied. Has two noticeable graphical glitches in all hardware modes, not gamebreaking or intrusive but readily apparent. The minimap distortion effect does not display properly in hardware renderers and there are graphical glitches during the Famfrit fight with Cid. The game also slows down to 10FPS during Mateus introduction cutscene and most level 3 and some level 2 Quickening animations despite running at 300FPS uncapped at 4x Native resolution otherwise. Completely playable from beginning to end with no freezes or crashes. When uprendering there is noticeable ghosting during cutscenes which can be reduced with half pixel offset hack but that creates other graphical glitches. | |||

* This game has native widescreen support, but there's still a WS Patch included in PCSX2's cheats_ws.zip archive file that is superior to the game's native WS option. The native widescreen adds a bit more to the sides but crops the top and bottom of the 4:3 image, meaning less visible vertical viewing area than when played in 4:3, while the WS Patch gives you more to the sides without cropping the top and bottom. So be sure to use the WS patch in addition to setting the game's Screen Size option to "Widescreen (16:9)". | * This game has native widescreen support, but there's still a WS Patch included in PCSX2's cheats_ws.zip archive file that is superior to the game's native WS option.

|IssueName=Shadows not displaying correctly | |||
|IsFixed=1 | |||
|IssueLevel=0 | |||
|Description=Some shadows are missing or incorrectly shaped and in the wrong place. And some surfaces are completely black when they're not supposed to be. | |||
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable '''Preload Frame Data'''. This will fix some shadows but also cause new shadow glitches. Switch to Software mode by setting Renderer to any of the (Software) options to avoid this issue. | |||
