Gathered at the Perishtilium Magic Academy,
students are divided into 13 job classes.
Under the guidance of strict rules and harsh training,
they lead a life of the ordinary and the real.
Friends are binded by the bonds of one another,
made an oath to the crystal in their fights of blood and metal.
When that door opens,
they wage their lives against the true story of mankind.
[Protect the Crystal With Your Life -- Agito XIII]
Aizawa: Now for the third and last game, Agito XIII, what kind of a role do the crystals play?
Tabata: I can't talk about the details at this stage (laughs). But, there are multiple crystals that have the latent ability of thought. That is one of the reasons why the protagnists protect the crystals. They grant all kinds of blessings and keeps the world in peaceful order.
Katou: At one point in the trailer where the crystal splits apart in a room of flames, cards were scattered all over the place. Names of party members and their HP gauge were shown on the cards, however, in Agito XIII party members refer to other mobile users who are playing the game, right?
Tabata: Right. However, that doesn't mean you can't play the game on your own. We're mixing in the things that make online games fun while keeping the offline feel intact.
Aizawa: Will in-game play look like the trailer, or will it be closer to Nomura's illustrations?
Tabata: More like the illustrations. But the game will be in full 3D, so the graphics won't be like Before Crisis -FFVII-. We're making it so that players will feel like they're living in this world. Like in MMORPGs where players freely carry out their own lives, for example, will be incorporated into the game.
Katou: Sounds really original.
Tabata: One the one hand, the type of games that are time-constrained wouldn't be suitable for mobile users. On the other hand, we thought "What if we create a new and interesting game that people can easily pick up and still cater to the way people use their cell phones, allowing them to enjoy an online game all the while decreasing the hurdles of online gaming?" For the games after Before Crisis -FFVII-, Nomura and I thought long and hard to strive for that. Agito XIII is the result of that effort. Please look forward to it.
