Final Fantasy Fabula Nova Crystallis is the name that encompasses Final Fantasy XIII compilation of games. The compilation consists of three games. Final Fantasy XIII coming out for both PS3, and X Box 360. Final Fantasy Versus XIII, which is exclusive to the PS3. And Final Fantasy Agito XIII, for the PSP.

Final Fantasy XIII

FF XIII is the only one of the three that has a substantial amount of information on it. Verses and Agito only have a trailer, some pics and a lot of speculation surrounding them. With the release of FF XIII coming at the end of this year in Japan and a Spring 2010 release for America. Everyone has forgotten that there are two games attached to the FF XIII Compilation. Every month see’s more, and more info on FF XIII. Trailers, new screen shots, game play announcements. Slowly we’re getting closer to unraveling the mystery of Square Enix new masterpiece. So far we’ve been shown that there are four characters featured in FF XIII. Nearly all if the iteration of the series has had more than four members, except the original Final Fantasy. Are there more playable characters? And how long will it be before they release images of them? Only Square Enix knows. Only two Summons have been officially listed. Although there have been screen shots of three others. As of now we don’t know the extent of the Summons abilities. Each character will be linked to one Summon. Lightning has Odin. And Snow has Shiva. Obviously the Summons are a represented as parallels of the characters. Sazh, and Vanille have not shown which Summon they are linked to. But there is a picture of Vanille holding Carbuncle. Although I believe that information will be shown soon. Most likely in a game play trailer. The Tokyo Game Show isn’t to far ahead. I’d expect more to released around that time. And maybe we might get a glimpse of the other two games that Square Enix has been keeping a tight lid on.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII

This game is just gorgeous. The CG movies that have been shown so far are amazing. We don’t know anything about this game besides how pretty it looks. The trailers do reveal some odd things. The main character has a conversation with a woman and later in the trailer they seem to be getting ready to face off. There are a number of fascinating clues to what the story may be. But you have to know Japanese. The game is being headed by the guys that brought us Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2. And the guys behind Advent Children are on Versus also. I dare say we’ll have a Final Fantasy that plays similar to Kingdom Hearts. Although much more violent. Waiting for information on this game is like waiting for a steak and lobster dinner after not eating for a long time. Square Enix is starving us. But really, this is the darkest I;ve seen a Final Fantasy go. And it looks just stunning.

There are some Square Enix heavy weights working on this title. Let’s hope it stays exclusive to the PS3.

Final Fantasy Agito XIII

This PSP version of FF XIII is shaping up to be quite different from the others. But very similar to another Final Fantasy. Agito reminds me of  FF Tactics. It seems like they have all the job classes in this. And nothing is cooler than that. I have no idea what this game is about. But it’s about time Final Fantasy comes to the PSP.

Prepare yourselves. We are going to have the time of our lives.
