is an action role-playing game developed and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation Portable (PSP). Released in Japan on October 27, 2011, ''Type-0'' is part of the ''Fabula Nova Crystallis'' subseries, a set of games sharing a common mythos which includes ''Final Fantasy XIII'' and ''Final Fantasy XV''. The gameplay, similar to ''Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII'', has the player taking control of characters in real-time combat during missions across Orience. The player also engages in large-scale strategy-based battles on the world map, and has access to a multiplayer option during story missions and side quests. The story focuses on Class Zero, a group of fourteen students from the Vermillion Peristylium, a magical academy in the Dominion of Rubrum. When the Militesi Empire launches an assault on the other Crystal States of Orience, seeking to control their respective crystals, Class Zero is mobilized for the defense of Rubrum. Eventually, the group becomes entangled in the secrets behind both the war and the reason for their existence. The setting and presentation were inspired by historical documentaries, and the story itself was written to be darker than other ''Final Fantasy'' titles. The game was originally announced as a title for mobile phones and the PSP called It was directed by Hajime Tabata, who took up the project after completing ''Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII''. Initially designed to provide players with easy access to the ''Fabula Nova Crystallis'' universe, the mobile version was eventually cancelled and the game's title was changed to distance it from the subseries' flagship title ''Final Fantasy XIII''. Releasing to strong sales, it received praise for its story and gameplay, but was criticized for its camera control and artificial intelligence. Despite plans to do so, ''Type-0'' has never been released outside Japan. Further games related to ''Type-0'' have also been developed, including a high definition remaster that released internationally in March 2015. ==Gameplay== ''Final Fantasy Type-0'' is an action role-playing video game in which the player controls the 14 members of Class Zero, who are sent on missions across Orience. Outside environments such as the Vermillion Peristylium (Class Zero's home base) and dedicated missions, the game world of Orience is navigated via a scaled-down world map. Class Zero are sent on missions across Orience during the course of the game. The player initially travels to preset destinations in the world on an airship supplied by the Peristylium, but gains their own airship to freely navigate the world map with after defeating a powerful enemy guarding it.〔〔 The main gameplay is presented in a mission-based structure.〔 The two types of missions encountered are story-based missions, and "Practice" missions, which act as side-quests.〔 During missions, optional orders are issued which can be obeyed or ignored as the player chooses. Should they be accepted, the characters receive a temporary power boost, and completing the objectives yields rewards.〔〔 Players can also engage in real-time strategy battles on the world map, with the player taking control of allied military divisions. Missions involve liberating cities and towns from enemy forces.〔 Timed aerial missions are also available where the characters shoot down attacking dragons using their airship's weapons.〔 While outside combat, players can breed chocobos, recurring galliform birds in the ''Final Fantasy'' series. Players must capture two chocobos on the world map and take them to a special ranch within the Peristylium: by pairing certain chocobos and adding specific items, a special chocobo can be bred for use. Players can visit the Peristylium Crystarium to review defeated enemies, character information, in-game lore and special video clips.〔 Moogles, another recurring creature in the series, hand out missions to the player: the objectives of missions can change during gameplay. Items and new equipment can be bought from shops managed by non-player characters (NPCs) both within the Peristylium and across Orience. Towns liberated during missions give access to a wider range of shops.〔 After completing the game once, players unlock a "New Game+" option: in this mode, players keep their stats and weapons from the previous playthrough, while also unlocking story scenes and character-specific missions.〔 ''Type-0'' features three difficulty levels; "normal", "hard", and "impossible".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Final Fantasy Type-0」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
