About this game

With their vehicle damaged, Nina returns to the city to find parts, bumping into a naked young boy named Ryu along the way, who is unsure of where he is.

At the very same time, Nina is again attacked by a dragon.

Confused by the strange events taking place, Nina agrees to help the young boy.

Meanwhile, the ancient Emperor Fou Lu awakens from his slumber in his tomb.

His plan is to return to the world of human, conquer it anew, and impose his iron rule on it...

This fourth installment of the Breath of Fire series is a fairly traditional Japanese-style RPG, with turn-based combat, party management, linear story progression, and other characteristic elements of the genre.

As in the previous game , characters become stronger and learn new skills by performing tasks for "masters" living in different towns.

Ryu, the main protagonist of the series, has retained the series' trademark gameplay element: the ability to turn into a dragon during combat.

Breath of Fire IV is rich in mini-games of various types, including the popular fishing mini-game that was present in previous installments as well.

About PlayStation

The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.

Gamevaro tracks Breath of Fire IV (2000) for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Breath of Fire IV (2000) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 2000.
