^ more like Beatrix AND her bust. 
Side note: If it's an arcade version, chances are move lists will be fixed ala the traditional Arcade Battle that was in Duodecim.
If they do a console port (PS3/PS4 I am estimating, but PS3 more likely) it might get some customization add-ons (alternate moves, costumes, etc) and such like traditional Duodecim had.

I was a little worried about that. Part of what made Dissidia fun was the rpgish element; deciding what skills you want to activate, what attacks you want to keep, gaining new attacks as you level up, forging better weapons and armor. It obviously can't happen in an arcade game, you need to throw yourself in the match in a relatively quick amount of time.^ more like Beatrix AND her bust.

Who knows what will happen with the storymode, which actually had some world exploration. I mean, bare minimum world exploration but hey.
Being an arcade game means the Dissidia elements are gutted. Even if we do get a port, those additions would radically change the game and require a lot of programming and testing. I'm kind of worried now.
Also, is this not getting front paged?

do some arcade machines have like a card or some other device or something that lets you save data and carry on with that when you play? i'm sure i've heard of that but i'm not sure where now

I want to say it's kinda like Skylanders figures or the Nintendo amiibos, but I don't really know for sure what sort of thing they will implement for Dissidia itself.
Chances are you could probably store things in some kind of adventure mode, but beyond that they'd have to give us more details.
Here's more info on how Aime works: https://my-aime.net/aime/en/p/info/about.html

So it's more of a proper fighting game considering DoA/team ninja is doing it? I suppose that's good, although I enjoy the old Dissidia mechanics. It'll be interesting to see how they do the 3v3 and customization in it.
Nice to know that even if it's developed out of house, Takeo actually has Final Fantasy history behind him so there's that.
Good for you Ramza, Enix recognizes your game (finally).

Ramza?! That's fucking awesome!
It also looks safe to take it as confirmed that they've wisely given up including a story this time and are just going to put everything into the characters and stages. Really, that's all any of us want at this point anyway, rather than one of the other ten cycles of the war.

I guess Ramza will have his Squire job when fighting normally, adding two or three jobs to be used as Ex Mode or something else...
Way cool!!!

Yeah, all of Ramza's unique abilities were in Squire, so probably that.
And yeah that Midgar map looks sweet

I'm curious as to what his ExBurst will be, something with the Lucavi maybe?
He doesn't really have a set limit break type move

Hmm, I mean it's a unique thing that he can learn Ultima. But that's kinda Kuja's signature. I would love something with Zodiac Stones, but I would be surprised if they did it.

Copy/paste from Dissidia forums:
FFIV - Rydia or Edge
FFVI - Locke, Celes, Setzer or Edgar
FFVII - Aerith (fully playable this time), Vincent, Yuffie or Red XIII.
FFVIII - Rinoa and Seifer
FFIX - Vivi, Garnet and/or Beatrix
FFX - Auron and Seymour
FFXII - Fran, Balthier or Ashe
FFXIII - Hope, Snow, Vanille or Fang
FFXV - Noctis
FFT0 - Ace, Rem or Machina
I'll explain why I chose these:
Rydia and Edge are the main party members in FFIV after Cecil and Kain, and in the originals you had no choice but to use them. Both of them were also chosen for Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
Locke, Celes, Setzer and Edgar are also the only party members you have to take to Kefka's tower to finish FFVI. Behind Terra, these guys are the most important, not to mention Locke was also considered for the original Dissidia. Locke, Celes and Edgar are also in Theatrhythm Curtain Call, and Setzer in Kingdom Hearts.
Aerith is the 3rd most important party member behind Cloud and Tifa, as she also has beef with Sephiroth. Like the other characters in VII she is incredibly popular, and she was already included in Duodecim. Yuffie is also incredibly popular, she doesn't have any connection story wise, and she's not connected to any of the other characters really, she has appeared in every entry in the compilation with a lot of screen time. She is also a boss in Kingdom Hearts I and II, so there's a moveset they can expand on. Vincent has a lot of ties, since he tried to stop Sephiroth's birth and feels a guilt for his existence, and what it meant for Lucrecia. He has appeared in most compilation titles, even with his own game. He is unique with his transformations into monsters, and a fan favorite. Red XIII isn't too important within the compilation, often being left out, but I predicted him because of his uniqueness of being a Dog. We need more non human/humanoid characters. All of these characters besides Red XIII were included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
FFVIII's plot revolves around Squall and Rinoa's romance. She's even in the game's logo. Behind Laguna, she makes the most sense for the next character. Seifer is also the most logical choice for VIII, since he was left out of the original, and he's probably the only other significant antagonist in the game. Seifer was included in Kingdom Hearts II, and both of them were included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
Vivi and Garnet both have strong ties to Kuja. Vivi was created by him, Garnet's mother was manipulated by him, and both of them are essential to the plot of FFIX. Vivi was included in Kingdom Hearts II, and both of them were included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call. Beatrix is incredibly popular, and I chose her because of her importance in the story of IX, with her appearing from time to time and destroying the party.
Auron and Seymour are both important to the plot of FFX. The games events wouldn't have happened without Auron, and Seymour is weirdly obsessed with Sin and Yuna. Not to mention Seymour was dropped from the original Dissidia. Auron was also included in Kingdom Hearts II and Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
I haven't finished XII, but these 3 are very popular in the fan base. Balthier was dropped from the original Dissidia as well. All 3 were included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
Hope and Vanille are most likely for XIII, since they got the most development out of the cast. Hope is a big character in the XIII series, always in a major role trying to help everyone. Vanille set the whole game into motion by hiding her focus, and a theme in the series is her guilt for not helping Fang when she had the chance. Vanille was originally the main character of XIII, being replaced by Lightning. Fang is also important to the story, with her relationship with Vanille and the war of transgression. She is also really popular. I chose Snow because he has close ties to Lightning, and he seems to be popular. All of these apart from Fang were included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
Noctis makes sense because he is the only playable character, but he might not be included right away if FFXV is not released before this, for the same reason Lightning was dropped from the original.
Ace, Machina and Rem are the most important characters in Type 0, and they are the most advertised. All of them are included in Theatrhythm Curtain Call.
These are my predictions based on popularity, inclusion in other media like Kingdom Hearts and Theatrhythm, and story line importance. Wonder how many are right
FFIV - Rydia or Edge
FFVI - Locke, Celes, Setzer or Edgar
FFVII - Aerith (fully playable this time), Vincent, Yuffie or Red XIII.
FFVIII - Rinoa and Seifer
FFIX - Vivi, Garnet and/or Beatrix

After Machina, Seymour and Beatrix there aren't many villains likely to get in.
I'd like Vayne, Doctor Cid and Basch before Fran tho.
