Square Enix‘s latest entry in the Final Fantasy franchise, Final Fantasy Explorers-Force (ファイナルファンタジー エクスプローラーズ フォース), is coming on mobile on 15th March.
Explorers-Force is the mobile port of Final Fantasy Explorers on 3DS, but it actually shares quite a different system and gets an artistic makeover by Yoshitaka Amano, Final Fantasy’s long-term illustrator since 1987.
▍System
The game is an action RPG where players can join up to participate in real-time matches online. It offers different types of force, so that players can be either new characters or heroes from the past Final Fantasy titles.
■ Soldier Force
The original characters of various jobs, such as knights and mages.
■ Crystal Force
Heroes from the past Final Fantasy titles, such as Lightning and Squall.
■ Summon Force
Summon beasts that assist players during battles.
▍Story
Half a century ago, there was a war that involved two major powers.
It almost used up all Crystal Energy. Summoned beasts were everywhere.
The world was devastated.
When the war was finally over, an international peace organisation was set up.
Its army is called “Force”.
The fighters are “Soldiers” while those responsible for investigation are “Explorers”.
This is a story about a brave young man.
He resides in the country’s frontier alone.
Determined to join the Soldiers, he abandons his home.
But little does he know he will soon be caught up in a disaster.
