As new information for the upcoming addition to the Final Fantasy series, Final Fantasy XII, continues to come in, the cast to this game continues to grow. Recent information mentions a new playable character and a race of creatures that many FF fans will be familiar with.
The latest character is Basshe, a commoner of Dalmaska who rose in the military ranks to become a general. Basshe is a good leader who is very well-liked in the kingdom, but also he is surrounded by mystery and tragedy. When the King of Dalmaska is murdered, Basshe becomes the prime suspect. His character becomes even more cloudy when he negotiaties a surrender with the forces from the Kingdom of Arcadia. Basshe will join as a playable character, but it's possible he may only be temporary.
Also, new screens have revealed that the cute little race of moogles will be back in action. They appear very similar to how they do in the GBA's Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced. It also appears that their role in this game is managing the chocobo stables. Release dates for Final Fantasy XII still remain unknown, but its possible that a Japanese debut could be as early as this winter or next spring, and a North American one to follow.
