The popular manga magazine, Shonen Jump, has released some interesting new information on Square Enix's Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus in their most recent issue. New details surfaced include character names and backstory, and a little insight on a possible multiplayer mode.
The character, Reeve, while known to have a part in the game for some time, gets a role in the Dirge of Cerberus storyline in the latest Jump. He is now described as the leader of an organization, called "WRO," whose main goal is to rebuild the planet. Fans who have been watching the trailers will undoubtedly know of a certain muscleheaded lout who uses an enormous gun as his weapon of choice. He has now been given a name, "Asul," and some background information of his own: he's a member of an organization called Deep Ground, or "DG," where he fills his role as an elite Soldier. Finally, the Jump article offered some pictures of a new character dressed in ninja attire, who wielded a large shuriken most Square fans will recognize.
In addition to new character info, the magazine shed light on Dirge of Cerberus' network compatability. Details are scarce, but the game will supposedly offer a multiplayer mode and the ability for friends to contend in team battles.
