Final Fantasy Agito XIII (ファイナルファンタジー アギトXIII, Fainaru Fantajī Agito Sātīn) is a video game for mobile phones which, alongside Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII, makes up the compilation Fabula Nova Crystallis: Final Fantasy XIII so far. Unveiled at E³ '06, the game "[offers] players easy on-the-go access to the FINAL FANTASY XIII universe. Utilizing gameplay functions only available through mobile phones, this title provides players with a unique take on a story accessible anywhere their real-life adventures may take them."[1]
The game is set in a magic school named Akademia[2], and will gradually expand to the larger world outside of the school. It is described as an online RPG, but not "massively multiplayer".[3] "Agito" in Latin roughly means "I engage in motion" (and is also the root from which the English "agitate" is derived).
Characters
There are twelve characters revealed, all twelve appear to be students. Weapons include longsword, katana, handguns, a shotgun, a mace, a bow and arrow, a spear, a scythe, an extending flail, bare fists, a flute and a deck of tarot cards. The Moogle, used in previous Final Fantasy games, is commonly mistaken as the 13th character[4]. The character with the deck of cards has been revealed to have a greater importance than the other characters (shown in a pamphlet at the 2006 Tokyo Game Show).
