That would have the actual Final Fantasy XIII to be ... !!

Final Fantasy Type-0 was announced anno 2006 under the title "Final Fantasy Agito XIII" with "Final Fantasy XIII" and "Final Fantasy Versus XIII" from Square Enix developers as part of the Games collection "Fabula Nova Crystallis".

"Final Fantasy XIII" was released in 2010 in Europe and was the hitherto most controversial play of the JRPG series, on which extremely the ghosts until today. For my part I found the game unspeakably boring, linear, cliched and cheesy. In order to re-burnish the reputation of the Final Fantasy series, who had suffered for quite some Final Fantasy XIII, you two years later pushed the direct continuation of "Final Fantasy XIII-2" afterwards, which had only moderate success. And to top it yet finally to lead then into the absurd, in 2014 came a second sequel ("Final Fantasy XIII - Lightning Returns"), which should complete the whole story surrounding portion 13.

But what became of the other two parts of the "Fabula Nova Crystallis" project?

"Final Fantasy Versus XIII" was summarily renamed after more than 8 years of development in 'Final Fantasy XV' and did not show up until today - but what I want to do not leave me here. "Final Fantasy Agito XIII" was also summarily renamed and released in 2011 under the title "Final Fantasy Type-0 'in Japan. Then there was silence for the title, a release outside of Japan was silent himself. Only after massive pressure from the fan base was decided at Square Enix to bring to the West Type-0. However, since the PSP outside Japan is as good as dead, and the decision was inexplicably against the PSVita as a platform, the title will appear four years after the release in Japan now finally in the West under the title "Final Fantasy Type-0 HD "on the PS4.

And what can you say? "Type-0 HD" is terrific. It's the Final Fantasy that actually "Final Fantasy XIII" would in my view have to be. An accessible fighting system (without annoying paradigm shift) combined with old-school elements of the series (eg again a walk world map), a really good story and an adult setting. The only weak point of the game is possibly the somewhat superficial and interchangeable characters. Nevertheless: "Final Fantasy Type-0 HD" is to miles better than anything else, which was released in "Fabula Nova Crystallis" universe.

Surely, you realize the title to his PSP origin - even if was bolted to the graphics. Nevertheless, it is of course by no means PS4 level, sometimes not even PS3-level. This makes the title but with his gameplay up for it.

The only thing I am sorry, is the marketing of the West - because the game itself is the basis of the supplied download codes for FF15 demo unfortunately completely under.

All long-established old-school Final Fantasy players can I recommend "Type-0 HD" definitely full!
