Dissidia Final Fantasy Arcade adds Kefka Palazzo

Final Fantasy VI‘s Kefka Palazzo is the latest character heading to Dissidia Final Fantasy for arcade, Square Enix revealed today. During a special broadcast, the company shared some details on the game’s June 30 update, which includes the playable Kefka. He’s the second character to be added from the Chaos, or villain side of the cast.

Dissidia Final Fantasy launched in Japan for arcades back in late November 2015. The game will be exclusive to arcade units for an entire year after the release of the game before it possibly arrives on another platform. In early 2015, the developers mentioned that they are considering making a PlayStation 4 version.

Kefka Palazzo is a character in the Final Fantasy series of video games. Originally designed by Yoshitaka Amano, he appears in the 6th installment of the series – Final Fantasy VI. First introduced as the court jester and army general under EmperorGestahl, throughout the game he reveals himself to be a nihilistic psychopath, and, finally, takes on a Lucifer-esque form, after setting in motion events leading to the Apocalypse and pronouncing himself the God of Magic. From that point he acts as the game’s primary antagonist.
