The revelation that
Agito, the former
Final Fantasy XIII cell phone game, was coming to the PSP was a nice revelation for many. Apparently, the developers were tired of waiting for cell phone tech to advance to the level they wanted for
Agito. While details are far and few between, the latest issue of Famitsu PS3 (via
FinalFantasyXIII.net) says that
Agito will use an advanced version of
Crisis Core's ATB system. Fans of the PSP-exclusive prequel should be familiar with the real-time battle system. However, unlike
Crisis Core, players can look forward to controlling more than one character.
Another bonus is the addition of Infrastructure online play to
Agito, a rarity for more Japanese-developed titles. Games with community aspects, such as
Monster Hunter Portable and
Phantasy Star Portable have opted to use Ad-Hoc multiplayer only. Although that hasn't hindered the popularity of either of these games, players across the Pacific understand that Infrastructure makes online play much more accessible. We approve.
[Thanks, Monkey!]
