Final Fantasy Type-0
While working on "Final Fantasy XV", Tabata decided to make a high-definition remaster of "Type-0" for eighth-generation consoles. Developed by Square Enix and HexaDrive, "Final Fantasy Type-0 HD" was originally announced at E3 2014, and released worldwide in March 2015. After "Type-0"s release, Tabata stated in an interview that he wished to explore the distant history of Orience after the events of the game. Trademarks for "Type-1", "Type-2" and "Type-3" were registered shortly after the "Type-0" trademark, but it was suggested that they were simply a protective measure. During interviews given in 2014, Tabata commented that he wished to work on "Type-1" after completing "XV", and later explained the conceptual "Type" series as a means of publishing "Final Fantasy" games too experimental for the main series. He hoped to continue with the "Type" series if "Type-0 HD" was commercially successful.
Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII
Outside its immediate reception, "Before Crisis" had an effect on other projects within the "Final Fantasy" series. After the positive reception of Madhouse's animated commercial, they were chosen by Square Enix to animate "Last Order". The high popularity of "Before Crisis" in Japan led indirectly to the creation of "Type-0", part of the "Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy" subseries and then a title for mobiles.
