Square Enix Plans Ad-hoc Party for Dissidia Final Fantasy

Good news for people looking forward to Dissidia Final Fantasy

Quote:
Dissidia Final Fantasy is featured once again in the latest Famitsu. This time, the magazine has a look at probably the two biggest characters in the game, along with a recap of the game's board-based story mode and multiplayer options.

Those two biggest characters are, of course, Final Fantasy VII's Cloud and Sephiroth. The two were previously confirmed for inclusion and have been featured in past trailers.

In the Famitsu report, battle supervisor Mitsunori Takahashi tells the magazine that the concept behind Cloud was "Smash & Blow." The FFVII hero has numerous moves which launch his opponent up into the air. He learns new skills with good balance, and is capable of using a slightly arranged version of the final skill that appeared in Advent Children. In EX Mode, he makes use of Ultima Weapon and can send enemies flying full across the map.

Sephiroth's concept was "Blade Master," said Takahashi. The FFVII villain has a sword so fast that it can't be spotted -- well, except for the damage that it leaves behind! Takahashi explained that it's possible to delay the timing of your attacks during combos in order to deal more damage. During EX mode, Sephiroth can both fly and use "that" skill.

Moving on to the game's story mode, it was revealed long ago that this mode of play takes place on a checkered board, with pieces representing your characters and your rivals. Depending on your character, you encounter rivals in different orders. Encounters include event sequences, with characters exchanging dialogue that should be a big draw for any Final Fantasy fan.

For those who prefer multiplayer, the game's ad-hoc wireless mode appears to have all the robustness you'd want of a multiplayer title. Players begin multiplayer sessions by creating and trading friend cards, digital ID cards that have your name, a quote, stats, and an avatar. Players can store at most 50 friend cards, so you'll probably want to chose your friends wisely.
