When Team Ninja, the studio that is known for games like Dead or Alive, announced that they would be developing a sequel to the PSP fighter Dissidia Final Fantasy, we joked how Tifa would likely fit their roster for well… obvious reasons. So it was kind of a surprise to see that the Fan Favourite fighter was not backing the Final Fantasy 7 team along with Cloud and Sephiroth.
Now with the introduction of Tifa in Final Fantasy 7 Remake, it’s a perfect time for her to punch her way to the scene as a DLC character sporting her classic look and her Advent Children-inspired costume. Team Ninja and Square Enix has released new gameplay footage, showcasing her speed/agility-class abilities and laying a brutal beatdown on Sephiroth.
Tifa will be available as Paid DLC for Dissidia Final Fantasy NT on July 2 through Steam and July 3rd via the Playstation Store. Dissidia Final Fantasy NT was originally released in 2018 on PS4 and was released earlier this year on PC, the game also released to a Free-to-Play version with a rotating cast of characters on both platforms. Tifa joins a huge cast of over 30 characters featuring villains and heroes of the Final Fantasy universe.
