Final Fantasy Maker Square Enix to Launch NFT Game on Polygon

Square Enix, the Japanese video game publisher behind franchises Final Fantasy, will launch its upcoming NFT-based game Symbiogensis on Polygon.

Symbiogenesis will apparently be built around 10,000 character NFTs tied to strategic game mechanics, although there will be other NFTs used in the game as well. The game will feature turn-based gameplay tied to the storyline, which takes different paths as users complete missions and either hold or trade NFTs.

Previously, Square Enix invested in The Sandbox and announced that it will revive its dormant Dungeon Siege franchise in its game world. The publisher has also launched NFT collectibles in Japan via the LINE blockchain, and announced Final Fantasy VII NFTs tied to physical action figures via Enjin's Efinity platform built on Polkadot.
