is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square Enix for mobile devices. The game's story is set in the universe of ''Final Fantasy Type-0'', and is an entry in the ''Fabula Nova Crystallis'' subseries. A downloadable episodic game similar to ''Final Fantasy Dimensions'', it featured a turn-based combat system encouraging both single-player exploration and multiplayer combat. There was a day-night cycle tied to the real-world time of day, and includes a social element whereby talking with a befriending certain characters advances the player's ranking in the game. The game, which acts as a companion to the original game, tells the story of an alternate cycle of conflict in the land of Orience. The story is seen through the eyes of a player-created Cadet entering the Rubrum Magical Academy during a time of war, and chosen to become the Agito, a figure destined to save Orience from destruction. The original protagonists appear in different roles and act as secondary characters. The story was intended to be played repeatedly, tying into the nature of the game's world and the eventual culmination of a player becoming the Agito. The game was developed around director Hajime Tabata's original concept for ''Final Fantasy Type-0'' as a mobile game which would give players easy access to a universe within the ''Fabula Nova Crystallis'' series and would be influenced by player choice. The title stems from ''Type-0''s earlier title ''Final Fantasy Agito XIII''. Many of ''Type-0''s staff returned, with Takeharu Ishimoto composing new music for the title, and former level designer Masayasu Nishida and texture artist Sayoko Hoshino returning respectively as producer and art director. The game came online in May 2014, and remained active until its servers were shut down in November the following year. Upon release in Japan, the game had five hundred thousand registered users within a week, and one million by November of the same year, but apparently numbers dropped after later negative impressions. Japanese and Western journalists were positive at its release. In August 2015, it was announced that the game could not continue in its current form, and would be replaced by a new version. Planned versions for the PlayStation Vita and Windows devices were scrapped, along with an announced localization. Its successor, an online multiplayer game ''Final Fantasy Type-0 Online'', is set for release in 2016. ==Gameplay== ''Final Fantasy Agito'' is a role-playing video game where a player-created character, the "Cadet", sets out on missions across Orience. The player can choose the gender and physical appearance of their character, along with their style of clothing, hair color, skin tone, voice and weapons.〔〔 The Cadet begins the game by exploring the Rubrum Magical Academy, but eventually is soon able to explore Orience as a whole. The game employs a leveling system whereby interaction with students and teachers, combined with performance during missions, raises the character from his/her starting rank within the Academy. Recurring creatures such as Moogles and Chocobos appear. A Moogle accompanies the Cadet around the Peristylium, while Chocobos can be ridden during later parts of the game.〔 Navigation is handled either by a special control stick on the touch screen, or the player can tap an area of the game environment for their character to head there. The character's bedroom acts as a central hub, while the fountain area within the Academy is where many non-player characters (NPCs) can be found and talked with.〔 The in-game time is also synchronized with real-world time.〔 Conversations with the previous game's protagonists increases the Cadet's standing with them: if the player taps a special button on-screen during timed sections of the conversation, the bond statistic with the chosen character will be increased.〔〔〔 The relationships built up by the player trigger special character interactions during the final chapter.〔 ''Agito'' features sub-missions, the game's version of side-quests, some of which change depending on the real-world day of the week.〔 They are given by NPCs, and can range from crafting new spells and equipment to performing certain actions within a combat mission. Successfully completing quests yields rewards such as new equipment and items.〔 Unlike ''Final Fantasy Type-0'', ''Agito'' uses a turn-based combat system.〔 The Attack menu, which appears during battles, features a gauge, which when full enables the character to attack the targeted enemy, and buttons displayed for various physical and magical attacks; these abilities can be chained together into combos that, once used, take time to recharge. Pressing the "Ability" icon triggers assigned skills, while "Chain" abilities enable the player to preset sequences of attacks and use them consecutively. Using certain setups rewards the player with in-game bonuses. The character can also use ''Type-0''s Kill Sight ability, in which precisely timed actions enable the character to kill an enemy with one hit. The game also gives the option for players to adjust battle speed to their personal preference.〔〔 Using a special item, players can temporarily summon both NPCs with whom they have a strong relationship and summoned monsters called Eidolons to deal high damage to enemies.〔 During single-player segments, the player can select two AI companions after selecting missions, which add to the player's total score at the end of missions. During missions, the companions can be issued with Team Commands, which can either order them to attack or increase healing abilities while lowering their defensive capability.〔 Each attempt at a mission uses up the Cadet's stamina meter, which allows a maximum of three missions at a time.〔 The game uses a job system similar to other entries in the ''Final Fantasy'' series, with specific skills accompanying each job. Players can create multiple equipment sets, with each item and weapon ranked according to its rarity in-game.〔〔 Materials gathered during missions can be used to upgrade the player's equipment and abilities.〔 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 Agito」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
