Famitsu magazine managed to score an interview with Tetsuya Nomura where he spilled some new details on Final Fantasy Versus XIII.
Nobody has heard or seen any new gameplay from Final Fantasy Versus XIII since January 2011. Final Fantasy Versus XIII was absent last year and many eager fans are waiting for more details on the game.
Here’s some of the things he had to say during the interview as translated by Andriasang:
-Nomura recently did the latest check of the game. The visual expression capability has improved from the trailer that was released last year.
-The game has a mix of real time and Visual Works pre-rendered CG. The ratio is 7 real time to 3 pre rendered.
-The scene where Noctus and Stella meet for the first time has been made into a pre-rendered scene. This is because it’s an example of an area where adding player control would not have a big effect.
-Square Enix won’t be holding an event ala last year’s January press conference this year. However, Nomura said that he’d like to make some sort Versus related announcement/showing this year, although he can’t say when or where.
-The next time we see Versus XIII, we will get a look at it being controlled on actual hardware.
It’s good to know we will see some new gameplay footage from the game later this year. As aforementioned, it’s been over a year now since we last saw any gameplay footage from the game. Hopefully Square Enix will show some new footage from the game at E3 at the very least.
