Square Enix has altered the design of the lead character in its upcoming mobile Final Fantasy game, Mobius Final Fantasy, because he was considered to be too sexy.
"After we released the screenshots in December, we looked at the various reactions we were getting online, and in the end, showing this much skin... For this game, we're moving forward during development and letting it evolve while taking into consideration users' opinions, so I asked the character designer to make a change." - producer Yoshinori Kitase.
However, it seems the decision was controversial amongst the development team, with project leader Naoki Hamaguchi and managing producer Hiroki Okayama preferring the original design, so there's still a small chance of the old design returning if fans kick up a fuss.
Mobius Final Fantasy is expected to release this spring in Japan on iOS and Android devices. A Western release has yet to be announced.
