The newly announced Monster Hunter-esque Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy Explorers, has been confirmed to feature local and online multiplayer.
Up to four players can play in a party, each choosing one of the game’s four job classes: Black Mage, White Mage, Monk and Knight. Whether a party of four can contain duplicates of a single class has not yet been confirmed. Once assembled, parties will take part in quests against classic beasts of the Final Fantasy franchise, with Summons like Ifrit at the front of the line.
Final Fantasy Explorers was announced for 3DS just last week, but has not been confirmed for a Western release.
