Breath of Fire, also known as Breath of Fire: The
Dragon Warrior in Japan is the first entry in the
Breath of Fire series of console role-playing games.
Developed by Capcom in 1993 for the Super Famicom, it
was licensed a year later by Squaresoft (now Square
Enix) for release in North America. In 2001, Capcom
independently re-released the game for the Game Boy
Advance worldwide. It is notable for being the first
role-playing game ever published by Capcom.
Breath of Fire takes place in the years following a
great civil war between the Light and Dark Dragon
clans. The Light Dragons are dwindling, reduced to
hiding in small villages. The protagonist is Ryu, a
young Light Dragon who awakens one night to find his
home set on fire by Dark Dragons. After his sister is
captured in the attack, Ryu sets off to rescue her. In
the process, he joins a race to uncover seven mystical
keys, before the Dark Dragons can use them to unlock a
goddess of destruction.
