Players who pre-order the sport will obtain a Wind-Up Zidane minion, in addition to Azeyma’s Earrings, referencing the goddess of the solar within the setting’s pantheon of The Twelve.
The pre-order bonuses appear to be they comprise references for the upcoming plot of Dawntrail, at PAX East, sport director Naoki Yoshida hinted that the references to Final Fantasy 9 are there for a “secret” purpose.
Meanwhile, though it’s confirmed Dawntrail is happening within the sport’s “New World” continent, Azeyma is basically worshipped within the southern continent of Meracydia, implying there may be some connection. However that’s simply our hypothesis.
Players who get the Collector’s Edition of the sport will obtain much more bonus goodies, together with a Wind-Up Garnet minion, an Ark mount in its robotic type which is Garnet’s strongest summon within the Final Fantasy 9, and a Chocobo Brush for the brand new Pictomancer job. The two further FF9 objects make the references an excessive amount of to disregard as mere fanservice and it’s protected to imagine that Dawntrail will make massive references to FF9.
