Dissidia Final Fantasy’s Director Thinks That It Can Be an Esport
Square Enix recently provided some (rather vague) updates regarding Dissidia Final Fantasy and its single-player story mode when it hits consoles in the future. That said, the company is still focusing on the game as a multiplayer, team battle Final Fantasy, and may even be looking to bring it into the esports circuit.
In a recent interview with Weekly Famitsu, director Takeo Kujiraoka stated that “If we can export it to the world as a high-proficiency, competitive fighting tool, while also an enjoyable team battle Final Fantasy, it might even rise up as an e-Sports event.” He follows that up by stating that, “If that happens, then next will be a global tournament, right? I can’t say too much, but I want to use these sorts of ambitions to make Dissidia Final Fantasy an even better game.”
So it seems that Square Enix may be considering something along the lines of the Capcom Pro Tour for Dissidia, if the game does garner a competitive following on consoles.
