Fans of Final Fantasy (who also happen to own a PSP) will surely be looking forward to Dissidia: Final Fantasy when it releases later this year, a one-VS-one fighter featuring select heroes, villains and bosses from the entire Final Fantasy series of RPGs.

You can get a glimpse of the action with the release of a US debut trailer for the game below:

Square Enix have recently revealed that the PSP arena fighting game, Dissidia: Final Fantasy, will be heading to European and PAL regions ‘this autumn.’

President and chief executive officer of Square Enix Ltd, John Yamamoto said; “With so many favourite heroes and villains contained in one game, DISSIDIA -FINAL FANTASY- is certainly going to appeal to fans of FINAL FANTASY.

“We also hope that players unfamiliar with the series are also attracted by an action-packed experience that really showcases the PSP and is set to become an instant classic on the system.”

Dissidia: Final Fantasy is a one-on-one arena fighting game, heading exclusively to the PSP, which sees a large cast of heroes and villains from the history of the Final Fantasy franchise battling it out with physical and magic attacks.

Billed as a ‘dramatic progressive action’ game (but could also be thought of as a roaming beat-‘em-up), Dissidia: Final Fantasy, releasing on the PSP, follows the adventures of a range of fan-favourite characters from the Final Fantasy universe as they struggle with an epic battle against the god of discord, Chaos.

The basic action is reminiscent of a beat-‘em-up, as characters fight against one another to reduce their opponent’s health, while running around a fully 3D environment, able to use their surroundings to their advantage.

Seeing as how Dissidia: Final Fantasy is a game with many characters from the history of the Final Fantasy series, this kind of set-up is bound to lead to a bunch of geek-out moments, as, say, Cloud, fights against, say, Squall. Like in the video below:

Quite exciting for Final Fantasy fans, to say the least, when it releases in the West on PSP in the middle of this year. A bunch more geek-out moments lie in the videos below:
