Dissidia: Final Fantasy - Shonen Jump - Image 1Haha! Finally! Looks like Square Enix couldn't wait for the DKS3713 event to confirm some new stuff for Dissidia: Final Fantasy! Two new characters are joining the ranks of Jecht, Squall, Tidus, Sephiroth, Firion, Ultros Ultimecia and the others.

A recent scan from Shonen Jump magazine from Japan confirms the characters representing the Final Fantasy III universe.

And my my my, previous rumors turned out to be true: The Cloud of Darkness is indeed headed to Dissidia, fighting for the bad guys on the God of Chaos' side. (Though I remember her to be a tad bit greener in skin tone, she seems flesh-colored now.)

Meanwhile, who does the God of Cosmos get to fight for her from FF3? Strangely, it's not a specific character, but the Onion Knight job class. I'm not really certain if it's Luneth, Arc, or Ingus under that Onion Knight suit - but it's an Onion Knight nonetheless.

With FF3 penciled in, our current tally of confirmed characters for Dissidia are:
  • FF: Warrior of Light - Garland
  • FFII: Frioniel - Emperor Palamecia
  • FFIII: Onion Knight - Cloud of Darkness
  • FFVII: Sephiroth
  • FFVIII: Squall Leonhart - Ultimecia
  • FFIX: Zidane Tribal - Kuja
  • FFX: Tidus - Jecht
And here I am, just waiting for the DKS3713 for more info. See, I'm slowly building up some more facts (and not-so-facts) for the next "Dissecting Dissidia" post, so here's to hoping Square Enix eventually gives us another media blitz!

Vincent could be the hero for 7, he has more flare. kind of fits the visual style they've been setting up.
