New Final Fantasy for PSP

"Dissidia" website emerges.

Square Enix has launched a website for a new PSP game called Final Fantasy Dissidia.

Little is known about the game other than the inclusion of series heavyweight Tetsuya Nomura to lead the character design.

It's one of many announcements expected in and around this weekend's Square Enix Party in Japan, where the publisher is expected to unveil its future catalogue. Not for the entire future, obviously. Duh.

We couldn't get hold of anyone in the UK to confirm the game, probably because they're off gallivanting in Japan. But we've sent our own roving reporters that way to bring you all of the latest info and gossip from the show, so stay tuned.

Head over to the Final Fantasy Dissidia website for a closer inspection.

    DPA sounds like QTE through the whole game and it's on PSP.

    The day this game will be released in Japan will be the day we see a certain jump in the PSP sales. Even better, release the PSP Lite or 1.5 (whatever you wanna call it) at the same time as this new Final Fantasy game.

    Sony and Square-Enix will be laughing.

    Is it me or does the two 'characters' behind the lovely logo are actually summons; Shiva and Ifrit springs to mind?

    Oh and I've just realised, this is a new bloody Final Fantasy game (at last!) - not some 15 year old port all over again as I was starting to get sick of reading Square-Enix's future releases being ports / remakes.

    "Oh and I've just realised, this is a new bloody Final Fantasy game (at last!)"

    Yes, the first one since February 23rd. The drought is finally over.
  • Cloudane #6 5 years ago

    Aretak, I imported the Japanese version of FFXII so it seems like a long time ago mate.

    I'm talking about Final Fantasy in general, especially on the DS and PSP where it has been receiving ports / remakes when a nice new Final Fantasy game would be more welcome.
  • Bragelonne #7 5 years ago

    Crisis Core and Revenant Wings are both new. Not in a new universe, but new nonetheless.
  • ZuluHero #8 5 years ago

    I love that on that teaser site it says "Fantasy is endless.." ;)
  • spongebob #9 5 years ago

    PSP has a nice library of games but somehow it's still not as good as Ninty's handhelds. I don't even know why that is anymore. I don't know if I care anymore either :)
  • Goffee #10 5 years ago

    Bum, i haven't even finished Final Fantasy I Anniversary yet! Give us a minute!
  • Hughes. #11 5 years ago

    Crisis Core, Tactics, Dissidia, my, poor, wallet.

    I think it's down to Nintendo's first party that makes the difference, because when you look at the whole library from both perspectives there isn't much to shout about one over the other.

    Which is very wierd.

    Is it true Ratchet Clank Size Matters is coming out this week? If so Jesus Christ give my wallet time to cool down. :o

    Aretak: It's even better than that, of course, what with there being one out in two days' time if he's counting Japanese versions, and that Revenant Wings was out less than two weeks ago. ^_^

    As I pointed out in the forums, the game is actually called "Dissidia - Final Fantasy" not the other way around, that fact plus the artwork on the site heavily suggests a spin off from the first game.
  • CitizenGeek #14 5 years ago

    Soo many great PSP games coming out, MGS:pO and Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth in the last week and Ratchet and Clank this week! And the sickinging thing is that have enough money to afford these titles, but not enough time :(

    I agree, Cloudane, that the two characters in the Dissidia logo look like Shiva and Ifrit. I really have no idea what this game could be about, though. Has there been any rumours flying about that might concern thisgame?
  • CallousB #15 5 years ago

    Dissidia ?

    Surely that should be a DS game? If it's for the PSP it should be call Pisspidia.

    @ AmethstSword

    As far as I'm aware, Tactics is already going to the US but not yet as it's only just getting it's release in Japan.

    @ CitizenGeek

    One poster on PSPFanboy said it was a fighting game...

    /pinch of salt
