Final Fantasy XIII battle system dissected
By Cokomon • Jan 29th, 2009 • Category: Video GamesTechnology website Ars Technica has an interesting breakdown of the recent Final Fantasy XIII trailer, examining the battle footage and picking out the peices. According to observations, the new battle system eschews the MMO combat from FFXII in favor of the fast paced, ATB system from FFX-2. In addition, some of the features shown in the video are reminiscent of FF8′s battle system, where only the HP is shown on screen. In addition, the trailer makes no suggestion that Magic Points will be a part of the battle system, another similarity to FF8. This is all speculation at the moment, as more information will become available when the Japanese demo launches soon.
