7. Type-0 is exceptionally gritty for a Final Fantasy.
For all of the things that make this game a Final Fantasy title, it’s still surprisingly a far grittier game than most titles in the franchise.
You’ll still get adorable moogles that gleefully exclaim “Kupo!” and there’s still a character named Cid. Plot-wise, however, players will be getting far darker; a story brimming with total war, massive amounts of death and students being sacrificed to summon giant Eidolons.
I raised an eyebrow upon witnessing sprays of blood as a crazed villain in Magitek armor gunned down students in a cutscene at the end of the demo. I wouldn’t be surprised if this got a M-rating from the ESRB.
