Square’s Takashi Tokita says that Final Fantasy 4: The After may actually be localized for a Western release!
Questioned about the possibility of more Final Fantasy 4 remakes, Tokita (producer/director of the DS remake) replied:
We just remade it, so it’s a bit of a stretch… Currently the sequel, Final Fantasy 4: The After, is available for mobile phones in Japan. We’ll do our best to make this game available for our overseas audiences as well!
As to how this would work on Western mobiles is unknown, but its graphics aren’t too advanced, so here’s hoping it’s possible!
We’ll keep you updated.

Gaming website 1UP.com has translated the Weekly Famitsu issue, and posted some new information:
- Dissidia is being released at the same date the original Final Fantasy was released 21 years ago.
- Cecil’s Paladin/Dark Knight forms both have their advantages. As a Dark Knight Cecil will be slower, but more powerful in ground fights, and as a Paladin Cecil will be faster in aerial fights.
- Dissidia is not just a regular fighter, it’s an RPG of sorts. The game is divided into stages, each on its own checkerboard-like map. The main character moves around like a pawn, picking up equipment and potions on the map and fighting whenever you stop adjacent to an enemy pawn. In order to move on the map we’ll need “Destiny Points” - think of them as action points. DP is earned by defeating non-boss enemies, and the more DP you have at the end of a stage, the more bonus stuff you’ll get. Stage bosses are usually on the other side of the map.
A low quality scan from next week’s Jump issue have leaked online, and it features the Final Fantasy IV characters that are included in Dissidia Final Fantasy, Cecil and Golbez. It seems that the player will be able to switch between a Paladin/Dark Knight while playing with Cecil.
Square Enix has revealed it’s line-up for this year’s biggest gaming event in Japan, TGS 2008, which starts on October 9 and lasts until October 12. There’s still no mention of The Crystal Bearers, but at least Dragon Quest IX is in.
