Shortly after Swedish studio Grin closed its doors in 2009, it was revealed that the company had been working on a Final Fantasy spin-off codenamed Fortress. Set in the universe of Final Fantasy XII, the game followed military leader Basch fon Ronsenburg and his friends through a desperate fight against Loemund, a demonic king from the sea. Basch and company set up within a huge, magical fortress to defend the world from the king's evil forces.

The following pieces of artwork provided exclusively to GameSpot tell the story of Fortress in great detail, breaking down major story beats and combat events. The result is a complete, overarching look at Fortress' plot and character arcs, and at how the game was laid out at the time of cancelation.
