Final Fantasy is a series that has achieved so much it's almost impossible to fathom. While the franchise has gone through some tough spots in the past, it's back and stronger than ever today. There are so many games within its universe, sometimes I really can't keep count of all the different plotlines and stories that are intertwined with one another. Final Fantasy Type-0 is about to add to the canon with another bunch of content, and a new trailer entitled "Enter the Fray" gives us an inside look at its features. Note that Type-0 is a remake of an older PSP title for new generation consoles like the Playstation 4 and Xbox One. Final Fantasy Type-0 will first release for North America on March 17, 2015.
While some of you might scoff at the idea of a remake, it's important to remember that the PSP hasn't exactly been the most popular choice for game developers and publishers. Nintendo has held a pretty tight grip on the handheld market and anything that's been put out on Sony's handhelds – even its newer PSVita – has likely had a much weaker impact than it would have had elsewhere. Sony is an amazing company, but they really need to get their plans together if they are going to continue competing with Nintendo in the handheld arena.
A post by the Playstation Blog notes that the trailer shows some of the 14 member cast, each using their own unique weapons. Take a peek at the bit of preview footage below:
