      Four more videos released giving a teaser for Zidane and Shanttato but more importantly, we get our first view of how the summons will work. Specifically Leviathan, Shiva, Ramuh, and Odin.

      Shiva


      Ramuh

      Can I hear a Whoot-Whoot from all the forums IX fans?



      Zidane is still a speed character with good aerial ability. He now has a new ability called Steal which does no damage but steals enemy stats which Zidnae uses to boost his own.

      EX-Skill: Trance - Zidnae transforms into his Trance mode and gets some nice boosts to his stats, in addition, Steal becomes Mug and now does damage in addition to stealing enemy stats.

      It's Tidus' turn in the spotlight.



      Tidus is a Speed type who is built around cancelling moves to execute new moves, making him highly unpredictable and a great pressure character.

      EX Skill: Quick Trick - Increases his Dash Gauge and recovers it quickly when not in use allowing him to cancel out of moves even better and keep better pressure on opponents.

      Everyone's favorite sociopathic Black Mage, Shantotto has arrived.



      Shantotto is a shooter type player who loves to cast powerful forbidden magics. She has the ability to sacrifice her own HP to multi-cast stronger versions of her spells as well making her quite formidable at the cost of being one wrong move from a knock out.

      EX- Skill: Colossal Shantotto - Makes her much larger increasing her range and blast radius for her spells.

      Vaan is here in his abiliscious glory.



      Vaan has a completely new move set and is a Unique Type character much like Bartz. Vaan has an extra HP attack compared to other characters and his battle style (modeled after the Quickening system) involves generating long combos in order to power up his HP attacks. The longer his combos go, the more likely he'll activate a Concurrence to multiply the damage of the attack.

      EX-Skill: Dread Note - It works similar to Shantotto's Mana Font EX-Skill from the original. As long as Vaan is dong combos or at least the player is button mashing, Vaan's Brave score never decreases even after using an HP attack making his moves more powerful.

      His playstyle looks pretty simple in the video though. He doesn't have that unpredictable move-set of his original self so he may actually be easier to deal with. For me Bartz just sounds ridiculously awesome and he'll probably be in my team if it ever gets a console release.

      Y'shtola should be tomorrow and then I'm curious to know if we'll see the villains or if they are even in the game at this point. I know Ramza has been confirmed, but he'll be an update character for later and won't be available with the initial release.

      Ask and you shall receive. While this is not an intro trailer like the others, SE has released a teaser video showcasing Ramza's character model.



      Still waiting to get info on Lightning and Y'shtola's playstyles and more info on all EX-Skills. Ramza is apparently a support type character who can boost his party's abilities with skills like Shout and Yell.
