Nomura (vaguely) hints at Dissidia sequel

Posted by Jens Erik Vaaler On March - 18 - 2010

Dissidia: Final Fantasy seemed like every Final Fantasy fans wet dream. A fighting game featuring the protagonists and antagonists from the 12 numbered games does sound pretty awesome. And it was, garnering a metacritic score of 79/100.

And when games are popular and sell a lot of copies, there’s a high probability of a sequel being made. When asked about a possible Dissidia sequel in a Twitter interview (yes those exist), SqueEnix character designer Tetsuya Nomura had this to say:

“I’ll do my best for a sequel to Dissidia Final Fantasy!”

Note that he said “for a sequel”, hopefully meaning the guy will sell the idea to the Square top brass post haste. Though it does make we ponder which characters would star in a sequel to Dissidia.

Dissidia sells 350,000 copies in first day

Posted by Michael O'Connor On December - 19 - 2008

Dissidia sales blow away the competition in Japan

It looks like the PlayStation portable still has some life left in it yet. On its first day at retail in Japan yesterday, Square Enix’s Dissidia: Final Fantasy sold a whopping 350,000 copies!

40,000 of theses sales were of the 20th Anniversary Limited Pack, which came with a limited edition PSP-3000 system. This makes Dissidia’s launch equal to the success of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII — mind you, it doesn’t even come to the first day sales of Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G; an insane 670,000 units.

As you already know a US release date has already been confirmed for mid-2009. Here’s hoping it repeats the same success over here.

TGS 2008: Bartz, Terra and Cloud confirmed for Dissidia

Posted by Michael O'Connor On October - 9 - 2008

This just in from the Tokyo Game Show; Bartz, Terra and Cloud (from FFV, FFVI, and FFVII respectively) have just been confirmed as playable characters for the upcoming Dissidia: Final Fantasy on the PSP.

Bartz appearance, as with the rest of the roster, is highy reminisce of Yoshitaka Amano’s original character design, and has a look inspired by ancient Roman history. Terra’s design is also identical to Amano’s original art, and as such she will be ditching the green hair for a more traditional blonde. Cloud will appear in his classic get-up, instead of his more recent Advent Children garb.

This news pretty much completes the 20 character roster for Dissidia. Now all we have to do is wait for the game to be released…
