During a special event this evening, GungoHo and Square Enix announced a collaboration to bring the Final Fantasy-themed Puzzle & Dragons in-game event to North America. This originally took place for the Japanese version of Puzzle & Dragons in April, and will be available stateside "soon."
The full list of Final Fantasy characters and equipment (and the games they're from) featured in the collaboration is below.
Final Fantasy: Chaos
Final Fantasy II: Emperor of Palamecia
Final Fantasy III: Cloud of Darkness
Final Fantasy IV: Zeromus
Final Fantasy V: Gilgamesh and Neo Exdeath
Final Fantasy VI: Kefka
Final Fantasy VII: Cloud, Sephiroth, Buster Sword, Masamune, and Fat Chocobo
Final Fantasy VIII: Squall, Rinoa, Angelo, Gunblade, and Pinwheel
Final Fantasy IX: Zidane, Vivi, and Mage Masher
Final Fantasy X: Yuna, Tidus, Tidus' Brotherhood, and Yuna's Staff
Final Fantasy Type-0: Ace
Final Fantasy Dimensions Series: Aemo, Mootie
Mobius Final Fantasy: Wol
Final Fantasy hero characters can be found in the Puzzle & Dragons Egg Machine, while the villains are located in a dungeon called Netherworld.
Puzzle and Dragons is a free-to-play match-three puzzle game that is wildly popular in Japan. Gameplay revolves around players commanding a team of monsters to explore dungeons, do battle, and collect treasures. Battles themselves are conducted through a puzzle game similar in style to Bejeweled.
Final Fantasy is not the first major gaming franchise to come to Puzzle & Dragons through a crossover promotion. GungHo and Nintendo previously partnered for a special Super Mario Bros. version of the game, which featured several iconic Mario characters including Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, and Bowser.
