The FINAL FANTASY BRAVE EXVIUS JP version marks its 8th anniversary on Sunday, October 22, 2023. To celebrate this milestone, the FFBE JP team has created a special 8th anniversary story, and it has been brought to life in “PLANETS” at átoa, featuring the largest sphere aquarium in the country, located in Kobe city of Hyogo Prefecture, Japan.
The collaborative event area takes inspiration from the battle with espers that is featured in the special 8th anniversary story of the FFBE JP version. In this area, a laser light spectacle is performed with the music from the game and stage light effects. There is also an exhibition area where a total of 20 pieces of artwork created by Yoshitaka Amano as well as 9 different character costumes and weaponries from “FINAL FANTASY BRAVE EXVIUS” THE MUSICAL are presented alongside life-sized character photo booths.
If you have a chance to visit Japan, we hope you visit this theatrical aquarium to experience the world of FFBE recreated with the fusion of art and a marine exhibit.
