Final Fantasy Explorers is similar to a hunting-action game, but will have a range of features from the Final Fantasy series such as job classes, summons, and magic. The latest issue of Jump magazine shares additional info for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS title. [Thanks, Game Jouhou.]

 

The magazine shares the latest details on jobs such as the Time Mage that can use support magic to help allies and Ninjas that utilize speed to their advantage.

 

Jump also shared a bit on some new Summons, starting with Ramuh who uses electric attacks and teleporting abilities to give players a hard time. Fenrir has also been revealed, and its speed is second to none, and it will use water-based magic to damage players.

 

Additionally, the magazine report also details a new “Trance” system, a powerful ability that lets you do things like temporarily pull off special attacks without using AP or temporarily gain increased parameters.

 

Finally, it’s been announced that Final Fantasy Explorers will be released on December 18, 2014 in Japan for Nintendo 3DS.

That's great! When is coming elsewhere? haha 

This game is sounding more and more like fanservice towards the people who like the older FF games...

 

Which makes me want it more and more.

2015. I'd guess May or June.

Never played those, I'm just excited to see a game inspired by the old days of FF.

You haven't? Ah, it was a sub-series for Nintendo platforms. I never touched them either, but the GameCube one was quite popular.

I've heard some were good. I played a demo for one of them (So I guess I really did play one, but not the full version), but didn't like it much.

Which one? The DS and Wii games were received pretty badly.

One of the Wii ones. My Life As A Darklord was the title, I believe.

Oh don't think Nintendo would do that. They need to have at least one FF title.

 

During this morning’s Final Fantasy Explorers livestream, Square Enix revealed a little more on the game’s “Trance” feature, which lets you transform into characters of past Final Fantasy titles.

 

The character they revealed was Cloud, but they mentioned that you’ll be able to transform into several other main character-type characters of past games.

 

While the time will be extremely limited, they’ll also have their BGM themes, and more going on.

In a game like Explorers why do they even allow you to transform into past characters? I much prefer the idea of creating my own character and playing as them. I guess it's nice for those who want to play as Cloud and the others though.

They always like to link the old characters with current titles.  We should get used to it.

Look, as much as I love Cloud and older Final Fantasy games, this is a really cheap move on Square's part.

But, as of the last few years, they like to be cheap.

I don't like this...

Well, this is odd. ._.

 

(Probably wouldn't mind too much if they included Celes, but I still don't see myself using this feature).

I will use this if it comes in the US.

If I can dress my characters as Terra,Celes,Zidane,Jecht and Auron.....then it's insta-buy day one for me ^_^
