Final Fantasy IV: The After Years description

FINAL FANTASY IV: THE AFTER YEARS is a 3-D remake of the sequel to FINAL FANTASY IV, set seventeen years after the war’s end. Prince Ceodore, son of Cecil and Rosa, has joined the Red Wings as a new moon appears and monsters threaten the Blue Planet’s peace. The story is told across ten playable tales. Begin with Ceodore’s Tale, then unlock six character tales that can be played in any order before returning to the central story through Kain’s Tale, The Lunarian’s Tale, and The Crystals. Familiar characters return alongside new heroes.

Combat uses Active Time Battle, with lunar phases affecting the potency of attacks and abilities. Phases change as in-game time passes or when resting at an inn, tent, or cottage. Party members can also unlock combined Band abilities through events or by raising their Affinity.
