Square Enix and developer partner DeNA have announced a new game for the mobile Final Fantasy franchise. It’s called Final Fantasy Record Keeper, and you play as Deci, a bright student to Dr. Mog in the history department.

Characters can be further enhanced by equipping weapons and abilities you collect. Final Fantasy Record Keeper will have memorable fights like the Battle on the Big Bridge against Gilgamesh and will bring players to Final Fantasy X’s Zanarkand.

It sounds like Final Fantasy Record Keeper will be free, with in-app purchases, and is on-track for a summer launch. Square Enix says it will land in Japan first before it rolls out to other countries, though it didn’t give a specific timeline.
