The present invention relates to an array substrate for a fringe field switching (FFS) mode liquid crystal display device and a method for fabricating the same. The liquid crystal display device may include a gate line formed on the substrate; a data line crossed with the gate line to define a pixel region; a thin-film transistor (TFT) formed at an intersection of the gate and data line; an organic insulating layer formed to have an opening portion for exposing the TFT; a common electrode having an area formed at an upper portion of the organic insulating layer, and an auxiliary electrode pattern connected to the TFT through the opening portion; a passivation layer formed to expose the auxiliary electrode pattern connected to the TFT; and pixel electrodes electrically connected to the TFT through the exposed auxiliary electrode pattern.
