Final Fantasy Explorers is in development for the Nintendo 3DS, this week’s issue of Jump magazine reveals. The game is a multiplayer action RPG, where you search for crystals while battling the Summons in your way. (Thanks, Re:Zaregoto)

Final Fantasy Explorers will let you select from multiple Jobs, each with their own role. Jump’s reveal shows the Black Mage, White Mage, Knight and Monk.

The Black Mage attacks using magic and specializes in long-range attacks. The White Mage, as always, is focused on recovery spells.

The Monk’s description should come as no surprise to anyone that has played Final Fantasy before either—he’s the representative for physical attacks. Jump says he “overwhelms the enemy with his surging dash”. Finally, the Knight serves as the party’s shield, by attracting the enemy’s attacks.

Jump says that many Jobs from the Final Fantasy series will be present in Final Fantasy Explorers. Parties can consist of up to four players, and you’ll need to use each Job effectively to take on the enemy. The goal of the campaign is to defeat the different generations of Summons.

According to Jump, Final Fantasy Explorers will have a large variety of weapons to choose from. The magazine also shows Ifrit as one of the Summons in the game.

Final Fantasy Explorers doesn’t have a release date yet. Square Enix is listed as the game’s developer.

sounds like another gross attempt at making another crystal chronicle like game :kobeyuck

Wish this was Crystal Chronicles straight up, I love that rustic world.

I think a Crystal Chronicles game with good online - which is actually possible in this day and age - wouldn't rustle anything.

Yo, this is cool. That DS Crystal Chronicles game, Ring of Fates, was genuinely awesome.

If we ignore the whole 2015 hilarity* this E3 is pretty great.

You can't. :'(

RoF was OK but had some problems.

Echoes of Time was the goooood shit, though.

I think you're right. One of them was clearly superior but I forget which one it was. I think it was the one with the weird Wii port.
