Hnnng cannot wait day 1! Was hoping release this year but this is still good early 2018
Also Lightning main highlight of the box art 🙌

 

[Obliterator]

This will be my first ever Dissidia game. Really stoked

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Holy wow that's awesome! MUCH earlier than I was expecting; I was thinking March!

This and Ni no Kuni II barely two weeks apart... Sweet Jesus, hold me. Next year is off to an amazing start for me.

 

[BasilZero]

Guess now I know what to buy for my birthday around that time!


Steelbook editions to trade....say what

 

[Irishonion]

Man, after watching the character reveals, finally get to actually play soon!

 

[Arkeband]

Is any of that unique art or did they just slap some existing renders on the box art of some random characters and call it a day?

Collectible random steelbooks...?

24.99 season pass of six characters?

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeugh...

 

[ponpo]

Wonder how popular this will be. I didn't like the earlier games and when I played the arcade version I was hoping it was sped up a bit. Guess I was expecting closer to the other arcade arena fighters in terms of how fast the game played, so wasn't for me.

I'm sure it'll sell somewhat well because of IP recognition but don't know about what the online community will be like after launch.

 

[Toki767]

Random steelbooks.

That sounds so dumb.

 

[DKHF]

Japanese release date is January 11

 

[raven777]

Japanese release date is January 11th by the way

 

[tiebreaker]

No Zidane on the cover no buy. Such disrespect.

Also too close to Ni No Kuni II release date.

Edit: I see that he is on one of the steelbook. Good for you Squenix.

 

[SgtWiggles]

Ew random steelbooks, that has to be the dumbest idea I have seen in a while.

Either way, must resist the urge to buy the CE

 

[AlexFlame116]

Preordered my Ultimate Collector's Edition! Not missing out on it this time!

I NEED THE CECIL ONE!

Why the heck are they random??? Why not just put them all in one?

 

[mrmickfran]

$190 lmao

 

[Danjin44]

I'm really excited for this but I absolutely HATE the box art. Fuck!!! it looks worst than NieR Automata NA box art.

Does anyone know what's cover art for Japanese version looks like?

 

[AlexFlame116]

I wonder why only 6 DLC characters for that season pass.

 

[raven777]

I wonder why only 6 DLC characters for that season pass.

benchmarking Street Fighter V.

 

[ponpo]

Japan has a beta running as well

Assuming not a placeholder,

 

[Megawarrior]

Hopefully my go to gamestop will let me pick the steelbook I want.

 

[Kyne]

box art is HIDEOUS.

should have went with Amano.

 

[BigEmil]

benchmarking Street Fighter V.

Then this season pass will also likely be on a sale eventually like SFV no biggie lol, but this game itself got enough content already to keep me satisfied, more than SFV atleast at launch, beta testing it on arcades in Japan for years helped ripen it too

 

[Lights and Waves]

I'll wait until the final roster is announced.

 

[Ganon Dragmire]

 

[SgtWiggles]

Hopefully my go to gamestop will let me pick the steelbook I want.

Bet its wrapped so you can't tell.

Either way I pre-ordered the CE....I loved the other Dissidia's, plus Square Enix CE's always have amazing art books.

 

[Caim]

I'll wait until the final roster is announced.

We'll probably have everybody who gets revealed up until the game releases or at least the majority since Jecht seems to already be in the console version even though he was just announced not too long ago.

[MulderYuffie]

was expecting later so nice!!!!

 

[jimmypython]

I didn't like the UI of the game.

 

[AlexFlame116]

benchmarking Street Fighter V.

Then they better get to revealing all the characters ASAP.

Also one of the DLC better be Rydia...

This kind of defeats the purpose of that email sign up to hopefully receive a beta key. You can just easily preorder the game and then cancel since they don't charge you or preauthorize your bank account.

of course

Spoiler

Where's the Prince?

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Random steelbooks? Fuck

I really want the middle one

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Is Ultimecia in it?

Ultimecia or no buy

 

[Yjynx]

I want that statue.

Well so we're back to stacked Q1 again...

 

[Caim]

Is Ultimecia in it?

Ultimecia or no buy

They just revealed Jecht and Exdeath so they are probably in the process of announcing the rest of the villains who were in as we get closer to release.

 

[denpanosekai]

Season pass typically means all future DLC right? The wording here makes it sound like it's a partial pass of some kind.

 

[AlexFlame116]

I wonder when we'll get footage of Noctis.

 

[BigEmil]

of course

Spoiler

Where's the Prince?

Square knows!

Think it's the same way DOA5 season passes work but that's just only for costumes lol

 

[raven777]

The Japanese official site mentions that the season pass characters will also be sold separately, if anyone was wondering.

 

[killatopak]

early 2018 is gonna be another early 2017...

my wallet

Preordered my Ultimate Collector's Edition! Not missing out on it this time!

I NEED THE CECIL ONE!

Why the heck are they random??? Why not just put them all in one?

I want the Cecil one.

I know there are people who are gonna buy multiple copies to get all.

Season pass works differently for fighting games.

 

[Danjin44]

Assuming not a placeholder,

I prefer this sooooo much over what we have now.

 

[Caim]

Pretty sure its partial, it says 6 new characters including their cosmetics.

I'd be surprised if there wasn't going to be anymore in the future.

 

[raven777]

Then they better get to revealing all the characters ASAP.

I mean SFV's 2017 season pass characters were never fully revealed in advanced....
Maybe SE can give silhouettes for all 6 characters in advance?

 

[Ray Down]

That box art is trash tier.

 

[salromano]

I take it no one has found anything about Europe?

 

[1mm]

Anyone have any spare beta codes?

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Of course Lightning is front and center.

Suppadoopa must be in Heaven.

 

[tiebreaker]

This is so stupid because I've already preordered lost sphere. So I'd have to cancel and preorder again??

 

[jiggle]

How many characters are they launching with if all future ones cost additional money?

 

[GAMERG0D]

I need that CE really bad.
