While specific mechanics remain undisclosed, information from the Square Enix store indicates that the game will incorporate six-sided dice and the iconic D20, a twenty-sided die popularized by Dungeons & Dragons. This suggests a hint of familiarity for seasoned TTRPG enthusiasts.
Yet, the true excitement lies in the potential departure from the conventional Dungeons & Dragons formula. Final Fantasy is known for its high drama, theater-like storytelling, monster summons, flashy ultimate attacks, and dramatic villain monologues—elements that may demand a unique approach in this TTRPG adaptation. In the world of Final Fantasy, mistakes are epic and explosive, not banal and comical, as found in traditional fantasy games.
