Final Fantasy 14’s supervisor studied the MMO’s future development previously today, revealing the Dawntrail launch day and a wave of various other details. But one certain line has actually just strengthened reports regarding a possible Final Fantasy 9 remake.
Director Naoki ‘Yoshi-P’ Yoshida exposed done in an unique presentation live-streamed from PAX East today, where he highlighted Dawntrail’s Collector’s Edition that includes an in-depth Viper number, a lovely towel map, an art box, a pen instance that resembles it can exist within the game’s globe, and a few other rewards.
Digital bonus offers referenced Final Fantasy 9, however. At around the 53:30 mark in the discussion, you can see FF9’s Ark mobilize recreated in FF14 as a place. Other electronic things consist of a wind-up Princess Garnet (also known as Dagger) minion and a chocobo brush for the brand-new Pictomancer course. Pre-order bonus offers rather consist of a wind-up minion for FF9’s leading ape guy Zidane.
A Final Fantasy 9-themed place and 2 minions based upon the traditional game’s leads sufficed to make the group joy, though Yoshi-P had not been done teasing. “You may have noticed a lot of Final Fantasy 9 references here,” he stated on phase with a laugh, “but the reason is a secret.”
Of training course, Yoshi-P’s remark can simply be hinting towards an unique crossover occasion within Final Fantasy 14 – like what’s being made with Final Fantasy 16. A brand-new raid could match us versus a winged castle or a crazy queen with clown make-up. Who understands? And as constantly, such supposition needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
But reports regarding a possible Final Fantasy 9 remake have actually been repeating considering that the pythonic Nvidia leakage 3 years ago noted the game. A leaker additionally asserted the task was still “real” simply in 2015, so some enthusiastic followers have actually been starving to listen to a main word for some time.
Should this report fail on its face, a team of followers have actually adoringly recreated Final Fantasy 9’s opening.
