News & Updates

Earlier in the month, Tidus and Jecht were revealed via Famitsu to be part of the roster of Dissidia: Final Fantasy. PSPHyper now has more details from that same issue of Famitsu. A battle system with HP and Brave points, which is the determinant of your character's power, is elaborated upon. Brave points are used to make HP Attacks, depleting your opponent's HP. Special moves can also be used this way and are earned by leveling up and they are unique to each character. An indicator that helps the player time each press of the button will appear during these special moves.

When your EX gauge becomes full, you enter EX mode, which is a Limit Break-esque state that will power up your character and perform up to four types of transformations. Gil, the currency of the Final Fantasy world, has also been revealed as part of the game but what it does is currently unknown. Gilding has also been shown as a means of movement. Despite its RPG roots, Dissdia's RPG elements are limited to leveling up and choices regarding treasure chests and enemies.

Nomura also assures us the reason the game is taking so long simply because each character has many moves and transformations, and their team wants to make them look perfect. As reported before, there will be 20 characters in the final cast and currently 50% of the game is done.

Yesterday, the interwebs brought word that the latest issue of Famitsu had an interview that stated Final Fantasy Versus XIII was being put on hold so that the team could finish Final Fantasy XIII.

Square Enix says that's not the case.

"Reports that development for Final Fantasy Versus XIII is on hold are false," a company statement sent to Eurogamer says. "The truth of the situation is that when free, some staff from the Versus team have been helping with the XIII team on development of Final Fantasy XIII. Development for both titles is continuing as originally scheduled."

The issue of Famitsu in question hits newsstands on Friday and features the interview with Tetsuya Nomura, director of Versus. We'll have more for you when the article is officially out in the open.
