Gameplay Today - Because You're Always Gaming

There’s no denying the immense popularity of the Final Fantasy franchise and its impact on the role-playing genre. It’s one of the most loved game franchises for a reason. The gameplay has continued a steady evolution over the years to ensure gamers don’t get bored and has appeared on all kinds of hardware – ranging from the original Nintendo Entertainment System to more obscure machines like the WonderSwan Color handheld and modern consoles including the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii.

The women of Final Fantasy are considered among many gamers as some of the hottest around. Sure the fact that they’re in an RPG series probably contributes. So with such a rich pool of talent in terms of hotness, who are the top babes in this category? We’ve compiled the list of what we think are the sexiest female characters in the history of the Final Fantasy franchise. Do you agree?

Yuna – Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2
Yuna is the female protagonist of Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 with ties to the equally popular Rikku. Appearing somewhat conservative in FF X, in Final Fantasy X-2, she loosened up in her new Gunner Dressphere outfit, as she exposes more skin. She dons a modified halter-neck top with the symbol of the Zanarkand Abes across the chest and a pink hoodie in the back. She also possesses a large pouch resting on her left hip over an ankle-length half-dress-like sash.

Rikku – Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2
Rikku is a lively Al Bhed who is a playable character in both Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2. She has some ties to another popular Final Fantasy babe in Yuna as their stories intertwine in the Final Fantasy X universe. We don’t have to go into a lot of detail about why we picked Rikku. Just look at her and the reasons are obvious.

Selphie – Final Fantasy VIII
Selphie Tilmitt is a character in Final Fantasy VIII. Selphie most often wears a yellow mini-dress. The dress itself seems to be a miniskirt/overall hybrid featuring clasps that go over the wearer's shoulders and clip at the front of the dress. It also features a frontal zipper that travels the full length of the dress and two large pockets located over the buttocks. Around her neck she sometimes wears a silver pendant that resembles a miniaturized replica of a poker machine reel and upon her left wrist she wears a blue strap. She wears brown cowboy boots that reach about mid-calf to complete her everyday ensemble.

Beatrix – Final Fantasy IX
Beatrix is a temporary character from Final Fantasy IX. She’s a top general and warrior of the all female army of Alexandria, and does not like to take a back seat to anyone, especially Kuja and his Black Mage army. Beatrix has a tall, slender, and curvy body with chestnut brown hair curled at the end. She wears a silver eye patch over her right eye with the left being a purple/reddish color. She wears hardly any armor compared which we’re not complaining about of course. Her clothing consists of a red and white top with a rose embalmed on the back over a pair of leather, reddish-brown pants tucked within a pair of mail boots. A belt is tucked around her waist at an angle, holding her sword, Save the Queen, behind her.

Tifa Lockhart - Final Fantasy VII
Tifa Lockhart is a female protagonist in Final Fantasy VII and still reigns as the number one cosplay feature in our Cosplay Babe of the Week section. Because of this, she’s an obvious pick as one of the sexiest, if not the sexiest, female character in the history of the Final Fantasy franchise. Tifa's long hair falls below her waist and is tied at the end in a distinctive dolphin-tail split. Tifa's hair is dark brown, but in some appearances it looks black. Tifa's eyes are officially addressed as red, but they have also been depicted as brown in some appearances, and she wears white tear-drop earrings. She wears a sleeveless white tank shirt that shows her stomach with a short black miniskirt and a pair of black suspenders connected to her belt. She also wears fighting gloves that come up to her elbows, which have metal protecting pads, and she wears old boots.
