Video: Announced this weekend at the Japanese Amusement Expo, Dissidia Final Fantasy takes Square Enix’s franchise-wide fighting game from the PSP to the arcade with three-on-three battles between a horde of iconic characters.
While more information is expected later this year, the first trailer (thanks Kev!) gives us a good idea of what Japanese arcade goers can expect — high-definition graphics, group battles, characters from franchise history all the way up to at least Final Fantasy XIV.
While nothing’s been announced for consoles — it is an arcade-focused trade show, after all — it’s easy to imagine a day when Final Fantasy fans could play this game or one much like this on their home console.

I know people have been hanging out for a console Dissidia game ever since the first one came out, and this teaser looks absolutely fantastic. Can’t wait to hear more.
Sweet.
There better be a port or I’m making room for a cabinet
Happy to buy collectors editions of games, this is the first time I’ve wondered whT a cabinet costs 🙂
Cue arcade full of people with their mp3 players up loud listening to their fav battle themes from the series & shouting matches on whom is the best final fantasy character
If it’s like the PSP ver it’ll be stuffed with the battle themes anyway
Monkey tail or it didn’t happen.
Holy shit
As a hardcore FF fan, I can’t help but geek out over this trailer. But this game looks like it’s got the same glaring problem the PSP one had, in that it’s im-freaking-possible to tell what the hell’s going on because the camera won’t stay still for more than half a second!
Good to see Y’shtola there though!
Ydra or Godbert pls.
What’s next? People start saying that Smash Bros. Is a fighting game!?!?
