Final Fantasy Type-0
Final Fantasy Type-0 (ファイナルファンタジー 零式 Fainaru Fantajī Reishiki?)is a video game published by Square Enix for the PlayStation Portable and it is developed by the company's 1st Production Department. The game was originally announced with the name Final Fantasy Agito XIII (ファイナルファンタジー アギトXIII Fainaru Fantajī Agito Sātīn?);"Agito" roughly meaning "to put in motion" in Latin.Director Hajime Tabata said he liked the Agito title, but the name didn't have much to do with the game Final Fantasy XIII. With the name change, they want to develop Type-0 into a series. Even though the game no longer has "XIII" in its title, the game still uses the Fabula Nova Crystallis mythology. While a release outside of Japan has not been announced, Tabata is trying to appeal to North American players in his direction of the game. Downloadable and "overseas" version are reportedly being investigated
Gameplay
___________________________________________________________________________________
The battle system will be in real-time and action-based, and similar to that of The 3rd Birthday (2010) and Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (2007), but will make use of the ATB system and allow control of multiple characters. On January 27, 2011, an interview in Famitsu revealed the flow of gameplay. The 12 heroes will travel from town to town getting missions, then discover enemy strongholds and carry out the missions. Based on what the mission calls for, players will be urged to switch their starting 3 party members for effectiveness. With each character specializing in a different weapon and elemental spell, each will have drastic variations of strengths and weaknesses. Summons will run on time limits (about 5 minutes), and if they are KO'd in battle, they will have to be revived in towns before being called again.
A compass has also been revealed in recent screenshots. Characters have been shown traversing dungeons filled with mechanical foes and soldiers. Playable characters alongside the main character, Ace, are shown in the screenshots with rather high HP and low MP costs to their magic spells in their command list. Like in Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, names of foes are stated under "Target" on the upper-left-hand side of the screen. A recent article by Weekly Famitsu stated that each of the twelve students will have their own summon that can be swapped out and controlled by the player. The summons can also level up; so far, the only confirmed summons are Ifrit, Golem,Diablos and Odin, used by Ace. In the January 2011 trailer, Bahamut was seen in battle during a cutscene, and an ice summon (thought to be Shiva) was seen skating on the battlefield. In a Famitsu interview, director Hajime Tabata said that "it's becoming an intense experience where you do gun shooting with fire." He also added that "Agito XIII will not have the standard multiplayer style of everyone gathering together to play. It will be a multiplayer system unique to this game."
Story
Settings
___________________________________________________________________________________
Final Fantasy Type-0 is set within a place called Oriens, which is divided into four nations: the Suzaku Fiefdom of Rubrum, the Milites Empire, the Lorican Alliance, and the Kingdom of Concordia. Each nation has its own emblem (a phoenix, two tigers, a dragon, and a turtle, based on the Four Symbols) and is blessed with a crystal that grants them unique powers: Rubrum controls the Suzaku Crystal containing the power of Magic, Milites controls the Byakko Crystal containing the power of Weapons, Lorica controls the Genbu Crystal containing the power of the Shield, and Concordia controls the Sōryū Crystal containing the power of Dragons. The Crystals have the ability to mark humans as their countries' servants. These servants, called l'Cie, are branded with a symbol and are given a "Focus"—a task to complete. However, while blessed with long life, l'Cie are cursed to lose their memories over time. There are also summons called Eidolons (War Gods in Japan), of which only six types are seen to be playable: Odin, Shiva, Ifrit, Golem, Bahamut, and Diablos.
Plot
___________________________________________________________________________________
A peace treaty is supposed to be in effect with the world's four countries, but Cid Aulstyne has sent his l'Cie soldiers to war with the neighboring countries. Conquering Lorica for its crystal, the Milites military focuses its attack on the Kingdom of Concordia and the Suzaku Fiefdom of Rubrum. However, for reasons unknown, the Suzaku crystal that kept Milites at bay at Rubrum shatters, leaving the nation vulnerable to attack and is forced to surrender to the superior nation. However, still possessing the powers the crystals gave them, the students of Class Zero refuse to surrender and proceed to fight back
