Dec. 10 (Portaltic/EP) –

The video game version Final Fantasy XIV (FF14) for smartphones will have a simpler and clearer game interface, as has been proven with a gameplay recently shared by those responsible for the title.

A few weeks ago it was announced that Lightspeed Studios had developed this version of Final Fantasy adapted to ‘smartphones’, which is officially licensed by Square Enix and has been created under the supervision of the producer and director of FFXIV, Naoki Yoshida.

The game will be set in the kingdom Eorzea, in which players must test their skills in battle with controls optimized for this type of device, which would allow them to “experience dynamic and intense combat” from the palm of your hand.

The game’s characters will also be able to participate in various festive events and “express themselves in a variety of outfits,” as noted in your website.

Also then, a preview of what the video game would be was shared, which LightSpeed ​​Studios had developed with “tremendous enthusiasm” and dedication to “faithfully recreate the story, battle content and other aspects of the original game,” in the words of Yoshida. .

The manager also pointed out that his team of developers “almost” gave up when creating the title “due to the perceived difficulty” and that, “although the road was quite difficult, they managed to create an outstanding version,” as stated Polygon.

A video has recently been broadcast through its Weibo account showing the gameplay of the mobile title and showing an interface different from the original video game, simpler and clearer than that of this massively multiplayer online (MMO).

Other personalities in the video game industry, such as the executive director of Aitai Japan, Audrey Lamsan, have questioned the accessibility of the mobile version of FF14 and have noted that “There are a lot of buttons.”

“The battle system seems interesting, but I’m curious to know how they will expand it when we reach the higher levels,” he said.
