Final Fantasy Resonance Trailer Showcases FF10 Hero Tidus

Square Enix's new crossover fighter Final Fantasy Resonance just dropped a character trailer for Tidus, the beloved star of Final Fantasy 10. Here's what he brings to the arena.
Final Fantasy fans, get ready โ Square Enix just dropped a fresh character trailer for Final Fantasy Resonance, and this one's a blast from the past. The spotlight is on none other than Tidus, the iconic lead of Final Fantasy 10. If you grew up with the blitzball star's story, this one's going to hit you right in the nostalgia.
For those who need a quick refresher, Tidus is the star blitzball player from the massive metropolis of Zanarkand in Final Fantasy 10. He's the guy who got yanked out of his own time and thrown into a wild adventure across Spira, and now he's bringing that energy into the Resonance roster.
So how does he actually play? According to the trailer breakdown, Tidus leans on the support magic Haste to boost his action speed, letting him zip around the battlefield faster than most of the cast. That speed advantage sounds like it'll be key to keeping pressure on your opponents.
On top of that, his kit includes physical attacks packing Water and Wind elemental properties. Those aren't just for chip damage either โ they're designed to aim at and break through enemy defenses, so you can crack open a stubborn guard and follow up with more punishment.
It's a fitting moveset for the character, honestly. Tidus was always the speedy, agile type in his home game, and translating that into Haste-driven mobility plus elemental break attacks feels like a natural fit for a crossover fighter.
As for where you'll be able to play Final Fantasy Resonance, the game is listed for PC, PS5, NS2, NS, and Xbox Series X|S. That's a pretty wide spread, so chances are good you'll be able to jump in no matter which platform you main.
We're still waiting on more details about the full roster and when exactly Resonance launches, but trailers like this one are a good sign that the hype train is picking up steam. Tidus joining the fight is a strong pull for longtime fans.
What do you think of Tidus's moveset in Final Fantasy Resonance? Are you planning to main him when the game drops, or does another fighter already have your heart? Let us know in the comments!
