With the release of Final Fantasy Resonance just two months away, Square Enix has provided a deeper look at the narrative world and specific goals for completionist players. This upcoming title serves as a standalone, offline adaptation of the original story arc from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, rendered in the franchise's signature HD-2D style.
Story and Factions
Players will travel to the nation of Zoldaad, a region dominated by the Fire Crystal and a rapidly expanding, magitek-reliant military force. The story introduces Jake, a rebellion leader fighting against the Zoldaad Empire, whose gambler-themed combat abilities will be available to the player's party.
The journey also extends to the legendary nation of Mysidia. Long considered a myth and rumored to have been destroyed, this “magiapolis” serves as a key location for the game's narrative progression.
