Square Enix’s Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, the latest instalment in the crossover fighting game series, can now be played for free. Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition is live on PS4 and PC via Steam, allowing players in the West to try it out without paying anything. Check out the launch trailer below to see the game in action.

The Free Edition features four characters on a weekly rotation, allowing players to try them out in multiplayer matches online. Matches allow for both Free Edition and full game owners to battle it out together. If there’s a particular character you like, then they can be purchased separately.

Of course, if you like the entire premise of the game, then there’s the Digital Deluxe Edition on PS4 and Steam to purchase. Along with all 34 characters (which includes DLC fighters like Rinoa Heartilly and Snow Villiers), players also get additional cosmetic outfits and weapons. There’s even an entire story mode to play through. For more information on the base game, check out GamingBolt’s official review here.

Square Enix’s Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition, which you’ll remember as launching in November 2018 for Japan, is coming to the West. It will be available for PS4 and PC via Steam on March 12th, according to the publisher. As the name indicates, this is the same title as Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, which launched in January 2018 for PS4.

The differences start with the roster selection. On a weekly basis, players will have a limited number of characters to choose from. You can thus try out different characters before deciding whether to purchase them individually. It also doesn’t hurt that Free Edition players can fight against owners of the full game.

If you missed it last year, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is the latest title in the Final Fantasy crossover fighting series. Battles featuring two teams of three characters are the focus this time around and the mechanics are fairly complex. For Final Fantasy fans, the same characters that they know and love, like Cloud Strife, Squall Leonheart, Sephiroth, and Noctis are all here, along with famous Summons.

Square Enix’s crossover fighting game Dissidia Final Fantasy NT now has a free version that’s available in Japan and Asia (supported languages include Chinese and Korean). Exclusive to the PS4, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Free Edition is on the PlayStation Store in those regions. As the name indicates, it’s free, but you still need PlayStation Plus to access online multiplayer.

Though Story Mode isn’t available, players can partake in online and offline battles. There will be four characters available, and they change on a weekly basis. Characters can be purchased (a starter pack is available as well) and they can be used at any time. Keep in mind that the weekly free characters only include those from the base version – DLC characters are not included.

Competing against those who own the full version is possible. However, if you want to try out the free version for some time and then transition to the full game, then your save data will carry over. While a release in the West hasn’t been confirmed, Exophase does have English Trophies for the same. Expect an announcement in the future, but check out the trailer below in the meantime.
