No More Dissidia Guys. You've Had Your Lot.

Creator Tetsuya Nomura has said as much in the latest issue of Dengeki PlayStation magazine.

"There is no next," he revealed, presumably meaning 'no sequel'. "We're thinking about ending this pattern of Dissidia here. There also won't be a UT [Universal Tuning is the name for the international re-release of the original Dissidia] version. The overseas version is being released at nearly the same time and has the same tuning, so we're not thinking about a release [of a UT version]."

Nomura added that fans hoping for more Dissidia-esque gameplay might yet find it under the guise of a new series.

"For the Dissidia series, there's the possibility of it appearing in another form," Nomura said. "However, we feel that we've done all we can with the battle base.

"We had the staff work for years on one-on-one battles, so I'd like to let them do another genre. I feel we've done all we can with this pattern of Dissidia.

"However, it is exciting to see past characters revived in 3D. So, if given the chance, we'd like to do something as Dissidia. However, I don't think it will be this Dissidia."

The petitions for more Dissidia start now.
