Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition is a combination of action and fighting game, in which we control the characters appearing in the main installments of the Final Fantasy series. The production is a representative of the Dissidia Final Fantasy series, which saw a total of two games released on the PSP console in 2008 and 2011. It is worth noting that the developer of the title is not Square Enix, which only serves as a producer and publisher, but Koei Tecmo and its Team Ninja studio, well known for their Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive brands, as well as games such as NiOh, Hyrule Warriors and Fire Emblem Warriors. Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition is a special, free-to-play version of the original commercial edition, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, which was released on PlayStation 4 in January 2018.
Plot
Basic version of Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition does not have a standalone story mode. Access to the special arcade mode with story cut-scene, which were included in the commercial edition of the game, is unlocked after buying the DLC. The author of the script, dialogues and cut-scene scripts is Kazushige Nojima, who previously worked on the following projects: Final Fantasy XV, Final Fantasy X, Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II.
Mechanics
Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition is a three-dimensional fighting game in which two teams of three people face each other. The fights take place in closed arenas and the action is observed from behind the back of our character. Players control heroes belonging to one of the four character classes, indicating their skills and role in combat (Vanguard, Assassin, Marksman, Specialist). Among the characters we have the protagonists and antagonists of the main installments of Final Fantasysuch as Noctis (Final Fantasy XV), Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy VII), Lightning (Final Fantasy XIII), Terra Branford (Final Fantasy VI), Sephiroth (Final Fantasy VII).
It is worth noting that Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition offers a total of only four heroes from the pool of more than 28 characters available in the commercial version of the game. The four characters change rotationally every week. In order to unlock permanent access to our favorite heroes we have to purchase the appropriate DLC set.
The game uses a rebuilt and expanded combat system, which was used by its predecessor. Each hero is described by several statistics. The most important are HP and Bravery. The goal of the players is to eliminate opponents by reducing their health to zero. The characters have a number of attacks, but each of them is assigned to two categories. Skills and moves that steal opponent's bravery are in the first, while abilities in the second use a pool of available bravery points to deal physical damage. The more bravery points we have, the stronger the attacks we can carry out.
Additional help on the battlefield comes from the summons, powerful beasts called by players, which provide various bonuses. After winning a duel we receive experience points and money, which enable us to unlock new weapons, abilities and skins for each character.
Game modes
The game features extensive multi-player options. The title was also given a single player mode, where we fight against AI-controlled characters. After buying the appropriate DLC we also get access to fights in story mode.
Technical aspects
Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition uses a three-dimensional engine that offers high quality character models and spectacular special effects, as well as constant 60 fps.
