The game will have a time travel component. Dengeki's report suggests that you'll be able to freely travel back and forth through time.

This is part of the game's "Historiacross" system. Each area of the game world has a "gate." Activate it, and the Historiacross appears in the area. Using the Historiacross, you can select the location or era to which you'd like to travel next.

Some areas have multiple gates, and depending on the gate you're currently using, you'll be able to access different areas. Triggering the gates requires "O Parts." Finding these requires help from your Moogle companion.

Dengeki shows a screen of the "gate view," where you select your next location. In the example shown in the magazine, you're able to select from Bresha Ruins AF0005 (AF means After Cocoons Fall, the number means the years after it). You can also select to save and access the main menu. The screen also lists "Fragment 0/8," although there's no explanation for what this is.

Another set of screens shows the transformation of Bresha Ruins over time. In AF005, two years after the events of the game, it's green and full of life. Years later, in AF300, it's become *(MAJOR SPOILER REMOVED BY ME YOUR SAVIOR)*.

It's not clear how the game's time mechanics will work. However, the time element is a central part of the story.

I removed the spoilers from the article, the article contains major story spoilers. I am pissed of that andriasang had no warning of them, I am on the verge of hurting myself right now.

The news has me happy, I love it when games have time travel functions like this.\

Considering they said you would have plot choices & multiple endings at E3 this opens doors for us to be able to change the future of some places hopefully. This will probably tie in to the "new form of new game plus" the devs said they had in store.

now all we need is two stereotypical teens that use terms like "dude", "bogus", "radical", and crap like that, who are trying to make it famous, and we have Bill and Ted, also, having it one step closer towards being FFX-2

once you've read it, you cannot un-read

lol this is one of the most confusing FF things I've ever heard of/read. Don't understand why games have to deal with time... Just watch, another Prince of Persia movie's gonna happen and the whole journey's gonna get cancelled cause of changing history/time >.>

That's what SE should focus on, making Chrono Break fans have been wanting it for years now... I suppose that won't happen though, as SE never gives fans what they really want -_-

*World is spinning...* Why SE? Why oh why?...Of all the things you could have done, time travel? SE, you just couldn't let it go could you? Just had to try to outdo the competition...

The historacross system kinda reminds me of dark chronicle. Let's hope it's also implemented like it.
