Hironobu Sakaguchi, renowned for creating the Final Fantasy series, initially planned Fantasian as his final game before retirement. Released in 2021 on Apple Arcade, Fantasian showcased innovative gameplay and handmade diorama environments. Following its success, Mistwalker launched Neo Dimension, enhancing the game with new features and voice acting. Despite comparisons to the Final Fantasy series, Sakaguchi emphasizes a unique creative approach and expresses a desire to create a new game akin to Final Fantasy VI, aiming to invoke nostalgia through pixel art.
I intended Fantasian to be my final project before I retired, so it was somewhat of a farewell note from me.
Since my approach to creating Fantasian was different from my previous works, drawing comparisons with existing games felt pointless to me.
With the production and release of Fantasian Neo Dimension - a definitive director's cut version - I believe that the game has become complete.
I hope my next game can be seen as a successor to Final Fantasy VI.
