Lulu, Final Fantasy X

Blizzard (ブリザド, Burizado?), also known as Ice, Ice 1, and Blizzard 1, is a Black Magic spell in the Final Fantasy series. Usually it is the basic Ice-elemental spell, and does minor Ice-elemental damage. Blizzard has also appeared as an entirely different attack usable by enemies, though later releases renamed the ability Snowstorm or Icestorm to differentiate between the two.

It is called Hielo (ice) in Spanish versions, Eis (ice) in German versions, and Crio (Greek for ice), Bufera (blizzard) in Italian and "Glacier" (icicle) in French.

Casting blizzard-type magic sends the battle area into a blizzard and inflicts Frost status on party and enemies alike. When cast on a body of water, everything is frozen in place, including enemies. If the player is standing on a rock in the body of water when they cast it, they remain unaffected and can thus focus on the immobile targets. Another way to avoid the freezing water is to use blizzard when standing right next to the target so Noctis will throw the flask while doing a backflip and he lands on the freshly-frozen ice.

Non-Final Fantasy guest appearances[]

Other Square Enix titles[]

Blizzard, also known as Ice in older titles, has appeared in other Square Enix titles as an ability, referencing the Final Fantasy version of the spell.

The original Game Boy versions of the first three entries of the SaGa series (known as the Final Fantasy Legend trilogy in the west) include Ice/Ice 1 (ブリザド, Burizado?) as the recurring ice/water-elemental spell, with its upgrade being Ice 2 (ブリザガ, Burizaga?, lit. Blizzaga) in the third entry. The Japanese-exclusive 3D remakes of the second and third titles include several upgrades for Blizzard - Blizzara, Blizzaga, Hell Blizzard, and Frost Blizzard.

Ice appears as a magic spell within the Forsaken Dungeon of Ehrgeiz: God Bless the Ring. The Basic version shoots an ice ball and consumes one Magic Stone when used, while the Ultra version has ice falling down to hit all enemies present, it consumes three Magic Stones when used.

Blizzard, together with its higher tiers Blizzara and Blizzaga, appears as a recurring magic spell in the Kingdom Hearts series. When performing Blizzard in titles, the caster unleashes a chunk of ice to shoot out directly from their Keyblade.

As the successor of Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light, Blizzard is featured as a recurring Black Magic spell in the Bravely series. The spell carries over the predecessor's water-elemental affinity for the spell. Blizzard is often one of the first spells obtained for the Black Mage job in each title.

Non-Square Enix titles[]

Blizzard has also made cameo appearances or has been referenced in some titles not associated with Square Enix. Noctis can use Blizzard in the form of his Blizzard Spike move in Tekken 7.

Influences in other titles[]

While not including Blizzard as part of its spell catalogue, Chrono Trigger features the Ice-line of spells that function as the game's equivalent. Ice serves as the game's default ice-elemental magic, being exclusively used by Marle. Its upgraded version, Ice II, can also be learned by Marle as she levels up. The spells are known as Ice (アイス, Aisu?) and Icega (アイスガ, Aisuga?) in the Japanese versions of the title. Ice and Ice II also appear in the Chrono series's spiritual successor, I Am Setsuna, as a spritnite ability for Julienne, even carrying over the same suffixes in Japanese.
