Re: Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Teases the Identities of 6 Additional DLC Characters

Personally I think it would make more sense if we see 'older' vs 'newer' as a gap of every 5 years...

so anything before X = older

anything from X - XV = newer

my guess is that one of the male characters could be another character from FF XV. I see a lot of people think Ardyn could fill this slot though honestly I could do without him in the game, i'd rather see Prompto or Nyx for a 2nd male spot in game.

Zack Fair - speculated by a lot of people, I think he could be the possible unnamed warrior DLC for the generic day 1 edition.

Araneia Highwind - Do I need to say much here? Let's be honest, she is one of the best and most developed characters of FF XV. She can hold her own, was great in Episode Prompto, and if given the choice I'd rather see her in Dissidia than Ardyn of all people. I doubt any other female character from XV would be more likely than her at this point.

I enjoyed Lunafreya as a character but she isn't the type to be placed in Dissidia.

Vayne or Snow from FF XIII - both seem likely choices to join lightning in Dissidia.

Yuna from FF X - Previous Dissidia character, most likely to join to give a female character from X.

As for the last male spot? Its probably someone from type 0 or XV.

Now, on a random note, if any female character were to be used from FF VII...I think it would most likely be

Aerith Gainsborough - IMO, she is the most likely candidate to be put in game as the first/only female from VII. Why? Because her role was crucial to the actions of both Cloud and Sephiroth. Aeris was tied to the Cetra race and one of the best support characters in any FF game. I think given the fact fans were pretty upset over her death makes a possible appearance in Dissidia more plausible. This would allow both old and new fans to enjoy her character in a scenario where her tragic story doesnt have to be the main thing defining her role.

Regardless of who we wind up getting I hope they're fleshed out nicely and keep things both balanced and interesting for players.
