Fantasian Now on Android From Final Fantasy Creator

The highly-anticipated game Fantasian: Neo Dimension, developed by Mistwalker and helmed by Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, is making its way to consoles and PC. Announced during the June 2024 Nintendo Direct, this previously Apple Arcade exclusive RPG will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC via Steam this holiday season. Fantasian boasts a full-story-driven experience with unique turn-based combat mechanics and music composed by Final Fantasy veteran Nobuo Uematsu. The game's environments were initially created as physical dioramas, adding a unique charm to its aesthetic. Additionally, the Neo Dimension version will feature significant visual upgrades, enhancing the already captivating graphics.

Fantasian's combat mechanics are distinct because they factor in enemy positioning and the spatial layout of combat arenas. Additionally, the game introduces a smart system for handling random encounters, allowing players to accumulate these encounters and address them all at once, reducing interruptions in exploration.

Fantasian, initially released on April 2, 2021, has been praised for its innovative combat system and stunning diorama-inspired environments. The game's development by Mistwalker, a studio founded by Hironobu Sakaguchi, and its accompanying score by Nobuo Uematsu, reflect the high-quality crafting of RPG experiences typically associated with the Final Fantasy series. The Neo Dimension edition promises enhanced visuals and expanded availability, making it accessible to a broader audience of RPG enthusiasts.
