Square Enix have confirmed their upcoming RPG, World of Final Fantasy, is coming to PS4 and Vita on 25th October in NA, 27th October in Japan and 28th October in Europe.

 

The synopsis reads

 

In World of Final Fantasy, players lead a pair of twins, Reynn and Lann, through the land of Grymoire on a search to rediscover their lost memories. Throughout their adventure, players will collect, raise and battle adorable beings of classic Final Fantasy lore, including cactuar, chocobo and behemoth, to create customizable, strategic tower combinations to take on the most challenging of opponents.

 

More information from Famitsu:

 

• The game is currently in the polishing and balance adjustments phase. They’re doing the overall finishes.
• Rather than have come from a different world, the Final Fantasy characters that appear in World of Final Fantasy have lived in the world of Grymoire from the very beginning. There are also some unexpected combinations of characters that are acquainted with each other.
• The game is being made to be played relatively carefree. They’re implementing a system so that you can return to the town from within a dungeon at any time, as well as immediately return back to the dungeon.
• Getting defeated in battle will only send you back home. You won’t lose money or any of the items you have. It’s being balanced so you can battle recklessly, more or less.
• Leaving out Mirage training and side elements, the story alone is over 100 hours long.
• The volume of the game is equivalent to a numbered Final Fantasy. There are full sub stories and events with Final Fantasy characters, too.
• Event scenes can be fast-forwarded or skipped.
• While you’re encouraged to bulldoze through battles early on, battles will become difficult from the middle of the game onward if you don’t consider attributes.
• There are over 200 Mirages that appear in the game. Since Mirages will get lonely if you don’t use them, they’re making adjustments to the game so that you can train all of them.
• Square Enix wants to make figures based on World of Final Fantasy.

 

 

Pre-orders for the Day One Edition will include a Sephiroth (FF7) summon to aid the players in battle.

Anybody else excited for this game? I really like the look of it, but that 100 hour long story and very little time to play has me worried that I won't get the time to play it all, especially with Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts 2.8 and NieR: Automata very much on my radar for 2016 :l

Did I mention THE CUTENESS

 

So cute I'm dead. I'm so excited for this game, ever since I saw it in a magazine last year. It's gonna be fun!

I really really really love the art style they've gone with. The game looks so good.

Seriously this is one of the most adorable games I've seen in a LONG time. I may not get it at launch (my fall game money is going towards FFXV and KH 2.8), but I will definitely get this game.

I have to give it praise for being unique. And the fact that the Final Fantasy characters have lived in Guilmore since the very beginning? I wonder how that's going to play out. Lightning is already so much more likeable in this game than the XIII series (I loathe that Final Fantasy series).

Quotaaa ~ But yeah, it looks so interesting CUTE And has a sorta kh feel to it, even though we'll be staying in the same world.

100 hours? Well good bye social life.

 

I'm so hyped!

Faris' voice wasn't pirate enough, pre-order cancelled

Why does no one mention Australia's release date?

 

Totally looking forward to this game. It looks so good.

Game looks nice, but the voice acting bothers me. Mainly the lip-sync set to match the japanese voices and the kids sounding too old. But aside from that, looking good!

Can't wait to try this out

So i maneged to take a Screenshot of the main character art showed in a Livestream on Square Enix's Japanese YouTube Channel... there's more but i won't bother to screenshot it.
