Haha! Finally! Looks like Square Enix couldn't wait for the DKS3713 event to confirm some new stuff for Dissidia: Final Fantasy! Two new characters are joining the ranks of Jecht, Squall, Tidus, Sephiroth, Firion, Ultros Ultimecia and the others.
A recent scan from Shonen Jump magazine from Japan confirms the characters representing the Final Fantasy III universe.
And my my my, previous rumors turned out to be true: The Cloud of Darkness is indeed headed to Dissidia, fighting for the bad guys on the God of Chaos' side. (Though I remember her to be a tad bit greener in skin tone, she seems flesh-colored now.)
Meanwhile, who does the God of Cosmos get to fight for her from FF3? Strangely, it's not a specific character, but the Onion Knight job class. I'm not really certain if it's Luneth, Arc, or Ingus under that Onion Knight suit - but it's an Onion Knight nonetheless.
With FF3 penciled in, our current tally of confirmed characters for Dissidia are:
- FF: Warrior of Light - Garland
- FFII: Frioniel - Emperor Palamecia
- FFIII: Onion Knight - Cloud of Darkness
- FFVII: Sephiroth
- FFVIII: Squall Leonhart - Ultimecia
- FFIX: Zidane Tribal - Kuja
- FFX: Tidus - Jecht
