Revealed! Final Fantasy: All The Bravest

[Aulayna]

original.jpgThe new Final Fantasy game is indeed Final Fantasy All the Bravest, for iOS devices, a spinoff combat-only title. It hit the New Zealand iTunes store a couple hours ago. Square Enix had said to expect an announcement on this tomorrow. Well, it's already tomorrow in New Zealand.

All the Bravest uses the Active Time Battle system popularized by older Final Fantasy games. "Every character possesses an ATB gauge that displays the time remaining until that character can execute an action," the description says. "When the gauge is full, simply tap or drag your finger over the character to attack. Touch multiple characters in quick succession to experience exhilarating and fast-paced battle."

All the Bravest will feature characters, enemies and music (more than 30 songs) spanning theFinal Fantasy series, and offers red mage, monk and warrior among the 20 classic jobs that are unlockable as players progress through the game. Old foes like behemoths and cactaurs will be followed by a boss showdown at the end of each stage.

Also, an in-game shop will offer 35 premium characters from "a number of Final Fantasy titles." The characters appear to be randomly awarded when purchased. Additional game stages from Final Fantasy VII, X and XIII also are available.

The game is listing for $4.19 in New Zealand, which is $3.50 U.S. No word on North American pricing, nor Android availability.

So, I already like the intended abbreviation - FF:ATB!

Hm, I actually like this more then a simple port (Teasers for ports seem like a bit much). I hope the 4 dollar is the price for the full game though, I hate when games are sold in parts.

[Red Mage Coffman]

Good point. My friend loved the start of Dimensions and proceeded to buy the rest. Until he found out they were 15 dollars apiece.

That said, I would totally buy this. Wish I had an iPhone T.T

Combat only title....I wonder if it will have enough depth to be playable for more than 5 minutes and a combined month.

Square Enix have now uploaded the launch trailer for their latest iOS game titled Final Fantasy: All the Bravest. In it you'll see just how crazy things can get with parties going up into the double figures range.

In the trailer you'll also get to see a lot of old school sprites, job classes and even musical favourites.

So without further ado...

So you control a mob of characters, interesting. I like the party of 30 dragoons.

[Psychotic]

Wow! I love the army of characters approach! I might just pick this up for my iPod if compatible. Theatrhyhm isn't.

[The Man]

I might get this if they release it for Android. $4 seems like a pretty reasonable price.

[Raistlin]

I might get this if they release it for Android.

Agreed. SE needs to release these games for Droids.

[Aulayna]

Yeah I hope it sees an Android release too. It looks fun.

[Loony BoB]

Go New Zealand!

[Polnareff]

Stuff like this is why I hate Square now. Making stupid teasers for iOS games (mostly of which barely even count as games) and refusing to bring out certain games in other territories, even though damn near every game they make sells like hotcakes (at least if it's not a SaGa title). Damn you Square-Enix.

[Necronopticous]

Final Fantasy Whac-A-Mole. Maybe next Square-Enix will deliver on the Final Fantasy baby mobile we've been waiting for.

[Tonberry Time]

So Square-Enix has been reduced to making iOS games? Make a proper game for the Vita, please. Or at least give us Chrono Cross and Crisis Core for the european PSN.

[Goldenboko]

As someone with an iPhone, I appreciate these games
