Final Fantasy Alliance Sequel on DS
Square Enix today announced Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, the latest entry in the Ivalice Alliance series. In development for the DS, the sequel is set for release on June 24.
This follow-up to the 2003 GBA release will feature the same turn-based, grid-oriented battle system, as well as new content and enhancements, including polished game mechanics, stylus controls and new jobs and classes. Here’s the story this time around:
School is out for the summer, but mischievous Luso Clemens must first face detention to make up for his misbehavior. Alone in the library, he stumbles upon an ancient book with magical powers that summons him to the mystical land of Ivalice. Warped into the middle of a battlefield, Luso joins Cid and his clan to set off on an adventurous journey looking for a way home.
The game will retail for $39.99 once released. Its official website has more.
