You are not alone in wanting a brand new Last Fantasy Techniques sport, because it seems Last Fantasy 16 producer Naoki “Yoshi-P” Yoshida needs one too.
It has been a protracted whereas since a brand new Last Fantasy Techniques sport was launched. Whereas the spin-off video games are a fan favorite, solely a handful of titles with the Techniques subtitle have been ever launched, although these which can be followers of the video games have numerous love to provide them. Curiously sufficient, Yoshi-P lately shared in an interview with TheGamer that he could be considering seeing a brand new one too. When requested about utilizing Last Fantasy 16 as the bottom for a brand new Techniques sport, Yoshida, Rising Tide DLC director Takeo Kujiraoka, and localisation director Michael-Christopher Koji Fox all apparently laughed and agreed that its scale may not be one of the best ways to go about it. “What would we even name it?” Fox laughed, “Last Fantasy 16 Techniques? That’s lots.”
Yoshida went on to say, “We’ve got numerous our employees who labored on earlier video games like Last Fantasy Techniques or Last Fantasy 12, so you are going to have numerous that [Tactics] really feel as a result of numerous the identical individuals are on the workforce. We’re very comfortable so that you can counsel this as a result of we’re all followers, but when we have been going to make this, we wouldn’t need to do the identical story that seems to be a special story.”
Persevering with to speak in regards to the concern of scale when it got here to the thought of hypothetically adapting Last Fantasy 16 right into a Techniques format, Yoshida stated “How would we even do the Eikon versus Eikon battles in that fashion? When you’ve got the Eikons, what number of squares is an Eikon going to be? You will have extra individuals on the market as properly, so what in regards to the wait time in between? … However the collection does lend itself properly to that sort of storytelling, and we love Techniques as properly. It’s most likely about time that we do a brand new one.”
That clearly would not assure a brand new one occurring, however such a well-respected member of Sq. Enix saying such a factor may get the wheels turning someplace. Within the meantime, Last Fantasy 16’s second and supposedly final little bit of DLC is out April 18, and can lastly cowl what occurred to Leviathan.
