New Dissidia Final Fantasy Game Announced, But Exclusively for Mobile
square Enix revealed a new installment in the Dissidia Final Fantasy series, but the proclamation has been met with a mixed reception from fans due to its planned release solely on mobile devices.The reveal is slated for a full presentation on October 14 at 3am PT/6am ET via YouTube.
The new Dissidia title arrives as the franchise has a dedicated fanbase eager for a continuation of the unique fighting game format, previously seen on PSP and arcade platforms. While details remain scarce, the mobile-exclusive nature of the project has sparked debate within the Final Fantasy community, with some expressing disappointment and concern over the potential for a live-service model-a strategy Square Enix has previously employed with limited long-term success.
Reactions on Reddit demonstrate the divide. One user urged others to boycott the game, stating, “no one join. Let this game burn in the hell of eos after one month.” Another expressed frustration,hoping for “a modern port of Duodecim so that I don’t have to see another live service slop.” However, not all feedback is negative, with one fan writng, “if it is half as good as Dissidia Opera Omnia, I’m ready to open the wallet.”
Square Enix has not yet detailed the game’s mechanics, story, or monetization strategy. The full reveal on October 14 is expected to provide further clarity on these aspects.
