Through the Ages Game Crunch
So, there are 53 of 64 cards from Through the Ages currently previewed at the time of writing. With four cards from each mainline Final Fantasy game on the bonus sheet, that means there are a fair few Through the Ages cards left to showcase. But what games are there left to preview for? Let's break it down:
- FFI 0
- FFII 0
- FFIII 1
- FFIV 1
- FFV 1
- FFVI 0
- FFVII 1
- FFVIII 1
- FFIX 2
- FFX 1
- FFXI 1
- FFXII 1
- FFXIII 0
- FFXIV 0
- FFXV 1
- FFXVI 0
At this time, that means that we are still awaiting two previews for Through the Ages for Final Fantasy IX, one from each of FFIII, FFIV, FFV, FFVII, FFVIII, FFX, FFXI, FFXII, and FFXV. After those eleven cards, that's it for the sheet.
With that firmly in mind, what do you think we will see for some of the yet-unrevealed cards? Do you think any particular Final Fantasy characters will definitely make it into this bonus sheet? What do you think won't make it in? Sound off below!
