Koby Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Square Enix has recently announced Final Fantasy XII: International Zodiac Job System for the Playstation 2. In the standard game, all the character abilities were managed on the License board - a checkered chart that decided what characters can and can’t do in the game. In the new version of Final Fantasy XII, there are 12 different layouts of the license board based on different jobs you can give to characters, opening up a whole new level of complexity to add to the epic game.One new layout in a featured trailer looked like a spinning dial of sorts. Which job that layout pertains to is anyone’s guess. But from what we can glean in the details given, players can expect jobs like Monk, Red Mage and Uhlan to show up.Other features include the original English voice-overs, as well as a 16:9 view mode that enables wide-screen viewing. A new bonus DVD will accompany the package as well. But in the tradition of Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix + and Final Fantasy X-2: International Edition, Final Fantasy XII: International Zodiac Job System looks like a Japan only exclusive. Although no plans have been announced for a U.S. release date, we’ll keep an eye out for any changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodus Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Looks like this version will be a bit more strategic, which is a very good thing. A better use out of the license board is always welcomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punishment Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 This is what Final Fantasy XII lacked that would have made it a magnificent game. IT had the story and gameplay but no strategy. Everyone could be basically the same. I really hope Square breaks tradition by also releasing this outside of Japan. I'd definately buy this game if it was.

Exodus Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Ah, KH2 FM+ would be awesome to get here. I don't think those Internationals and Final Mixes ever make it outside Japan unfortunately.Lazy arses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
