Dissidia Final Fantasy

It’s been some time since we last heard of Dissidia Final Fantasy, the new entry of the Dissidia Final Fantasy series launching in Japanese arcades in the future. The upcoming game will come with plenty of new features that will make it feel different from the previous two entries released on PSP years ago. And finally it seems like we will be learning more on this anticipated game soon.

Japanese magazine Famitsu has confirmed on its official website that more details on Dissidia Final Fantasy will be coming in this week’s issue of the magazine, which will hit Japanese stands in two days. The Dissidia Final Fantasy coverage will include details on playable characters Firion, Cecil and Bartz  as well as an interview with game director Takeo Kujiraoka. It’s also been confirmed that the game will be released in Japan on November 26th.

The latest Dissidia Final Fantasy gameplay videos have been made available back in May, showcasing two characters returning from the PSP games, Bartz from Final Fantasy V and Squall from Final Fantasy VIII. The video including footage of the two characters also showcased one of the location tests that have been held in Japan a few months back.

Other Dissidia Final Fantasy characters have also been shown in the past few months with another gameplay video. Among the showcased characters are Warrior of Light from Final Fantasy I, Onion Knight from Final Fantasy III, Terra from Final Fantasy VI, Cloud from Final Fantasy VII and Y’shtola from Final Fantasy XIV.

Dissidia Final Fantasy is currently set for a Fall 2015 release in Japanese arcades. While a console version hasn’t been confirmed, chances are high for a PlayStation 4 version as the arcade version uses the console’s hardware. A home console release, however, will only come some time after the arcade version launches.

After a long wait, it appears that the search for a capable Hollywood actor to bring the brooding Shadow the Hedgehog to life has come to an end. Keanu Reeves, a renowned actor known for his iconic roles in film franchises such as The Matrix and John Wick, as well as his involvement in the highly anticipated game Cyberpunk 2077, has officially been cast for the role.

Speculation has been running wild lately, but The Hollywood Reporter has officially confirmed the casting, citing reliable sources in the know. News of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 being showcased at Cinemacon has quickly spread. Reeves is sure to bring his own special touch to the role, but it’s uncertain how well he will mesh with the mustachioed Dr. Robotnik, as Jim Carrey is set to reprise the character.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth’s Retry Wording Has Been Updated in a Subtle Manner

Despite the numerous praises players have showered upon Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, there is one particular aspect of the game that has garnered nothing but criticism: the perplexing wording of its retry screen, which players encounter when facing a Game Over. Fortunately, the developers have discreetly resolved this issue in the game’s latest patch. They have fixed the Platinum Trophy progression, resulting in a slightly less confusing experience for players.

If you don’t possess exceptional combat abilities, chances are you’ve come across the game’s notorious four options: “Retry from Current Battle, Retry from This Battle, Retry from Before Battle, or Resume.”. As an avid gamer, I must admit that I’ve experienced the frustration of losing precious time due to my own foolish mistake. In this particular instance, I found myself engrossed in fine-tuning my matrix and equipping my party, only to have it all go to waste when I encountered a formidable enemy. To compound my error, I made the ill-advised decision to retry the battle, resulting in an hour of agonizing repetition. Lesson learned!

The “Retry from This Battle” option has become a source of frustration for players who are struggling with the game’s final boss encounter, leading to a significant number of rage-quits. Without giving away any surprises, opting for that choice after being defeated would result in players being sent back to the beginning of the final boss encounter, needlessly forcing them to forfeit approximately an hour’s worth of hard-earned progress in battle.

After the update, players now have the option to select “Retry from the Current Phase” instead of “Retry from Before the Current Battle.”. It’s worth noting that this change is only slightly improved. It’s rather disappointing that the screen is overly convoluted, which may lead to players feeling frustrated. While it’s better late than never, we can’t help but wonder if this issue will persist in the future.
