Square Enix's new smartphone game "Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia" has its release date pushed back from the initial 2016 schedule to early 2017. Many fans have been waiting for this mobile game to be released and the delay seems to be because of the need to rid the game of any bugs before its official release.

"Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia" is Square Enix's latest mobile Final Fantasy game. It was slated for release in 2016, however, due to the need to fix bugs that are currently plaguing the game, the release date was moved to early 2017 as reported by The Bit Bag.

According to Gematsu, "Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia" will have more characters available for play, and with this release date delay comes a new powerful character that many fans are familiar with. Square Enix has confirmed that there is a new set of characters to be added to the game's roster, including "Final Fantasy VII's" One Winged Angel, Sephiroth.

Along with our beloved silver-haired villain, "Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia" will also include Galuf Halm Baldesion from "Final Fantasy V," Squall from "Final Fantasy VIII," Eiko from "Final Fantasy IX," Shantotto from" Final Fantasy XI," Vanille from "Final Fantasy XIII," and Ace from "Final Fantasy Type-0."

The characters stated above are all confirmed by Square Enix. However, there are additional characters that are hinted to be part of the upcoming smartphone game but are yet to be confirmed.

"Final Fantasy V's" Faris Scherwiz is one of those unconfirmed characters along with Setzer Gabbianifrom "Final Fantasy VI," Prishe from "Final Fantasy XI." Balthier from "Final Fantasy XII," Snow from "Final Fantasy XIII," Cloud of Darkness from "Final Fantasy III," Tidus from "Final Fantasy X," Lightning from "Final Fantasy XIII," and Ramza from "Final Fantasy Tactics."

The wide roster of familiar Final Fantasy characters is what players love about the "Dissidia" series and having iconic characters like Sephiroth and Cloud from the fan-favorite "Final Fantasy VII" makes it all the better. "Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia" brings together iconic legacy characters from other "Final Fantasy" titles and bring them together in an epic command-based battle system.
