The trailer for Final Fantasy Tactics S is here! What you didn't know there was a new Tactic game coming out? Well, check out the video first and we'll tell you all about it!
If you didn't know, Square Enix has been working on bringing the Final Fantasy Tactics series back so you can once again join the world of Ivalice. This time though it'll be a social game.

This most likely is from the fact that it is a mobile game. You can choose to spend gil on gear and recruiting more members. You get it through a series of quests.
There will be over 300 jobs for you to choose from but two new ones have recently been added. The Air Samurai and the Musician.
