Final Fantasy: Grandmasters (Android/iOS)

[6souls]

A Final Fantasy XI Spin-off

Spoiler: show

The concept behind the Vana’diel Project’s new title, Final Fantasy Grandmasters, is to allow fans of the series further explore the world of Vana’diel with friends, in a lighthearted and mobile fashion.

Mobile developers Crooz are working on the game, and it will feature jobs, places, and various other content from Final Fantasy XI’s world of Vana’diel.

The game is being developed as an online RPG that will allow you to play with friends.

It will have various fields like Final Fantasy XI, and while it may not be as vast as the fields you’ve seen in XI, you’ll get to chat and use emotes to communicate with others. While cooperating is one of the themes, you’ll be able to play solo as well.

JP ONRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Whatever more excited about actual mobile XI.

[Purrrfect]

Man wtf, bring that over here goddammit!

[Auspice]

A bit perplexed that they'd drop XI from the title too. Wouldn't you want that extra brand recognition to sell a few more copies?

Sounds a lot like XI back in the day. At least there's consistent theming! JP onry!

[Teknique]

for anyone who's interested in how this is progressing. they delayed beta testing by like 1month+. closed beta testing starts today in Japan.
i'm not exactly sure why I'm so interested in this. maybe cos its XI.

I hope this comes over to US, it looks interesting.

[Spira]

supposed to be closed beta but some people don't care. if you can bear with the thai commentary..

[Purrrfect]

Oh the musics..... I need a time machine now >.>

[Spira]

a different/clearer look at it.

[The Stig]

Not sure if I like the retro style "step forward and swing" but given it's a mobile game presented in a psuedo 3D environment I guess it's alright.

I enjoy how you can jump in to people's battles, or vice versa.

They seemed to have imported the mob models into the game, or it looks suspiciously similar lol

I like the gear on the players. It's incredibly cute, but I currently view them all as tarutarus ...

At 16:36, the adaman helm is cute, and so is that haubert he's wearing (Iron Ram Haubert?)

The mobs aren't very threatening

battle music.

Late response, but this is why I prefer they do XIV's music. No offense to soken..but Mizuta's crew is just...timeless in that 'FF sound' and proven if they get to not deal with the PS2's limitation on the sound they could make something amazing.

[Gwynplaine]

I'd play it if it comes to the US.
