Dengeki has had the chance to talk to Final Fantasy Agito XIII director Hajime Tabata and producer Yoshinori Kitase about how the third installment in the Fabula Nova Crystallis compilation is progressing.

At the moment Tabata is focusing on his other project, The 3rd Birthday but he says the development of Agito is progressing steadily. "I believe it will be an FF that differs from the image fans have." When Dengeki asked what he meant he answered "We're making it into a game where you can feel the true pain and weight as a war story. Because it has some harsh portrayals, Kitase is frequently making checks."

Kitase continues "There are parts where you see a soldier burned and falling over after being struck by fire. Initially, I warned them to not go too far in their expressions, but now I'm telling them to do whatever they want." To justify the long wait, Tabata adds "It's a full spec Final Fantasy that's multiplayer and can be played on the PSP. Please anticipate it greatly."
