Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is quite divisive when it comes to the fanbase of the original PSP titles, though I enjoyed it. The game itself opts for three-on-three combat as opposed to the more traditional one-on-one fights we saw in the first two games. Currently, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is moving into the second year of its time PS4,
Last month, Square Enix launched a free version of Dissidia Final Fantasy NT in the west. Alongside the new version of the game, the development team plans on adding new characters and content throughout the rest of the year for the game’s second season. We spoke to the game’s director, Takeo Kujiraoka, about what fans can expect in
Dissidia Final Fantasy NT faced some criticism from some fans in regard to its major changes to the battle system. More specifically, the change from one-on-one battles to three-on-three team-based fights. We spoke to Dissidia Final Fantasy NT director Takeo Kujiraoka about whether or not the team would be interested in bringing one-on-one fights to Dissidia Final Fantasy NT.
With the launch of Dissidia Final Fantasy in 2008, Square Enix finally answered the requests of long time fans of the series to bring together their eponymous heroes and villains from their flagship series in a unique combat setting. Initially released on the Playstation Portable, it’s no surprise as handheld video game systems began to slide into
There isn’t really any other turn-based Final Fantasy game I have more affinity towards than Final Fantasy X. In my opinion, both its narrative and gameplay still hold up today, and in that regard, the game works to bolster Switch’s lineup of unique and meaningful JRPGs. If you’ve read my guide to Final Fantasy on the Nintendo Switch, you already know I
Originally released last summer on Nintendo Switch, Octopath Traveler quickly became a critical and commercial hit thanks to its unique blend of retro JRPG gameplay with a stunning visual style, and now PC players will finally get to experience the acclaimed RPG for themselves in just under two months. Square Enix has officially confirmed that Octopath Traveler
The third installment in the rebooted Tomb Raider franchise released last year with Shadow of the Tomb Raider. While I found it to personally be the weakest of the trilogy, it still had its moments of great enjoyment and made me excited for the future of Lara Croft. Now, ahead of the release of the game’s final
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius will soon be entering its fourth year in Japan with over 35 million confirmed downloads globally and only continuing to trend upward in popularity. Combining Square Enix’s iconic Final Fantasy franchise with their mobile series Brave Frontier, Final Fantasy Brave Exvius boasts hundreds of characters mixing the best parts of both aforementioned titles with the
Square Enix and gumi inc. first unveiled War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius for iOS and Android back in December 2018. That being said, the title is still shrouded in a lot of mystery as we only really know that it will be a tactics game that takes place on the continent of Ardra
Shadow of the Tomb Raider may have ended the three-game arc of Lara Croft’s journey to becoming the Tomb Raider we all know and love when it released last fall, but each month since then, Crystal Dynamics has continued to deliver a variety of new adventures for Lara (and the player) to traverse through with
As revealed by Gematsu, a now-deleted blog post on publisher Square Enix’s site confirmed that Octopath Traveler will be coming to PC on June 7. Octopath Traveler is a well-regarded RPG that launched exclusively on Nintendo Switch in July 2018. Octopath Traveler puts you in control of eight different heroes, each with their own story
Are you a newcomer to the Final Fantasy series? If you’ve been playing exclusively on Nintendo hardware for some time, you may have missed out on a lot of the greatest games in the series.

Never let anyone tell you that working at a gas station is not glamorous, because cosplayer Holly Wolf is pulling it off. Recreating fan-favorite side character and mechanic Cindy Aurum, Wolf is bringing her all — complete with a gas-station motif. And in a cosplay scene already populated with a lot Final Fantasy 15 work, Holly Wolf
I’m a huge fan of the original Dragon Quest Builders, so the second entry in the spinoff series, Dragon Quest Builders 2, came naturally to me when I got to go hands-on with it at PAX East last weekend. Dragon Quest Builders 2 makes some solid improvements to its Minecraft-like formula while retaining what made the first entry so lovable. Fans have
It seems like Acquire and Square Enix’s JRPG Octopath Traveler will eventually be ported to PC. According to Gematsu, Octopath Traveler was rated by the Korean Ratings Board on PC. Games which get rated this way usually are properly officially announced a few days later. Meaning there’s a very high chance Square Enix will announce that a port of
Final Fantasy has noticeably changed since its turn-based roots back in 1987. No other entry represents that change more than Final Fantasy XV in my mind. While I have many things I love about this entry in the longrunning series and many things I dislike, Episode Ardyn is the finale to this saga that began back in 2006 with Final Fantasy
Spring is a very special season in Japanese culture, representing renewal. It’s when the school year starts, in April, and it’s also the season of mass hiring for most Japanese companies. As we entered the season a few days ago, multiple Japanese game companies announced positions they’re recruiting for, at the same time giving us
From just the first episode of Life is Strange 2 when it released last fall, there was a lot to unpack from the long-awaited next installment of the episodic series from Dontnod Entertainment. By taking place in a new area and following a new set of characters, the first episode (naturally) had to give players a
Up until now, the release schedule for Life is Strange 2 has likely been a bit longer than many fans initially expected it would be. As a result, Square Enix and DONTNOD Entertainment today opted to announce when all three of the remaining episode within Life is Strange 2 will finally release to ease fan questions. The
Square Enix has announced that they’ll be adding yet another character to their team-based fighting game Dissidia Final Fantasy NT.

Square Enix published new details for Octopath Traveler Tairiku no Hasha, the upcoming Octopath Traveler prequel for iOS and Android. Tairiku no Hasha, which can be translated to “The Continent’s Champions”, will be free to play and include micro-transactions, but the game is described as a “single-player RPG” instead of “social game”, or the like, and should
After so many years of hype and anticipation from fans, the long-awaited Kingdom Hearts 3 finally released earlier this year to the delight of those that wanted to see the end of the Dark Seeker Saga to its conclusion. If you haven’t had the chance yet to jump into the series’ conclusion just yet, Amazon is
Yesterday I launched my review of Left Alive, the latest (and maybe the last) tie-in to the Front Mission series. All-in-all I found the game to be neither fun or good, so it’s probably best for you to avoid it at all costs. Nevertheless, if you are interested in trying the game for yourself, definitely give the gameplay below
Left Alive is a culmination of unoriginal ideas that never click together to create a cohesive gaming experience in 2019. Ultimately, it isn’t fun, and it’s certainly not good. On the surface, Left Alive appears to have some potential but upon hopping into the game’s first chapter, all hope seemingly washes away in an instant when you have
Square Enix announced today a new Octopath Traveler game, titled Octopath Traveler Tairiku no Hasha, which could be translated to “The Champions of the Continent”. The game will be a free-to-play single-player RPG for iOS and Android and will include micro-transactions.
