New FFXII Revenant Wings Screens gives gameplay hints

Look, Laaaaavaaaaaaa.... This reminds us of the floating continent in Chrono Trigger


What do we know about the game so far? Storyline-wise we know that the game picks up from where FFXII ends, and will feature Vaan (now with his very own airship), Panelo, and the legendary floating continent Puruvama. What about gameplay? Well, other than that odd trailer floating around in YouTube, and that Dagenki DS Style interview with the developers of the game that reveals that it would feature staple summons and a DS version of the Gambit system, not much gameplay-wise.

Combat! Join our merry gang of sprites!


Well, these new images we found at Famitsu might give you guys an idea of how gameplay should feel like. So what can we discern from these images? Well, in-game graphics feel a lot like Chrono Trigger (especially in the second image from the left), only a bit smoother.

Moreover, combat looks a bit disorganized. While we know that Gambits are implemented, we're not entirely sure if the 'free-motion' feature of FFXII is in the DS game. Well, given that huge mess in that combat screenshot, 'free-motion' is a possibility, and if that Dagenki interview is to be believed, then combat should have healthy doses of stylus use. It could either have a max of four people in a party, or it may still be three plus one guest.

Well, we can't really say anything more conclusive, given this one screen, but don't worry, we'll keep you guys updated when more word leaks!

Uh... "gameplay" ? For those of you who don't know... which seems to be the case here... This game is planned to be a RTS (Real Time Strategy) at the same extent that Starcraft, Warcraft, and the likes. Although, I might have misunderstood what you meant by gameplay, but if it's a RTS, then of course the use of the stylus will be heavy, I wouldn't see a quality RTS without the use of a pointing device (Starcraft 64 is not qualified as being a quality RTS in my opinion).



Just thought I'd state what I thought here.

Sounds interesting. I'm not big on RTS games but I am getting into them. My brother-in-law gave me Starcraft and I must say it is fun.
