(Before I start this review, I want to explain one thing for those confused about the version of this game in Japan, but to save some confusion for those wanting to know about this version of the game, I will talk about it at the end. )
If you have any history with Final Fantasy (and I mean history, like the stuff that came out in the late 80s and 90s), this game is a well of memories. Not only do they pull characters from nearly every FF game both old and new, they even created what seems like bi-weekly updates to the game. adding new characters, continued story missions, and one off challenges that are sometime ripped right out of other FF games.
I have loved getting addicted to this game. It is rewarding for the free to play gamers and challenging for the pay to win gamers. There is a little co-op...ness(I know, that's not a word) that allows you to use one of your friends(or a random players) sharable character to help you out in missions or in challenges. You Controle their character and use it like your own.
There isn't really and communication with other users, but if you ever need help or a very powerfull friend, go to the FFBraveExvius Reddit page. The community there is foe the most part super helpful. You will always find guides and maps to just about everything.
Speaking of guides, the Exvius Wiki is a wealth of knowledge as well, that is always up to date.
Some missions or locations allow you to run around with your character and get in random fights or talk to NPC's for missions or to buy things. Others will be a string of fights that normally get harder as you go through them.
There is a lot about this game I could talk about, but the truth is you really should play it. It's worth it. But if you have any questions, please fill free to leave a comment, or visit the FFBraveExvius Reddit page and ask away.
Now back to the two versions of this game: This game came out in Japan back in October of last year, and then was rereleased in its vanilla form(meaning all added content was removed) at the end of June this year on iOS and Android, and then released on the Amazon App store in October. (trying to explain as simply I can)The game is currently played on two different servers, and players in one server can not play with the players on the other. The first server is the one hosting the Japanese version of this game, and the other (called the Global Version) is on the other server. The Global version is the version this review is on. The version released last year in Japan is a little more then half a year ahead of this version of the game. Not all special events and characters are the same nor were released in the same time frame as each other, but for the most point, the games are the same and we are slowly getting everything they have, we just so happen to have a good idea of what's coming next and what it will look and feel like because the Japanese version of the game has normally already had the same event or string of missions. If you want a bit more info, I would encourage you to visit the reddit page for this game. There are several posts that outline everything about the two versions in detail, and for anything else you can always ask. As I've said, they are a scary helpful group over there and rather knowledgeable.

Day 1 launch player here, sharing their opinion of the past five years.
Over time this game has been fun in many an aspect, the events were fun, the music is some of the best in all of the FF series, the collabs have been nice (This GL version has had a lot of different/missed ones from the JP version for various reasons.)
But also over time, the managing company (Gumi SG) has gotten a lot worse in their decision making processes to the point of where almost all of the critical things that have made this a Final Fantasy entry has been completely abandoned:
Currently in the rush to the most recent tier of units (which is its own mess designed to encourage spending to use it to complete events. Sure the units are powerful in their own events, but unless they're anything but a dps, have quickly fallen out of an rapidly escalating power creep within even days of each other.) Gumi has forgotten all of the core aspects of what made FFBE special. This list includes:
9 months of story events (usually a monthly event) that explains who a character is and where they fit into the game's lore, opting to instead throw them onto a weekly banner randomly with no explanation as to who they even are, or abandoning them altogether (Search up Elnath as an example.)
8 series boss battles (a fight designed around an old favorite boss enemy, like Ultimecia as an example, all bosses from classic FF games.)
Dozens of older units who have either received current-tier evolutions or had them mishandled (Search Zile and Esther just to start the list.)
Many quality of life changes from the JP client were not brought over to this version, as well as bug fixes being ignored. (As an example, the "pvp" arena *it's not pvp like say Raid* has a bug where it'll send you back to the title screen instead of the main menu.) This bug has been around since before the 3rd anniversary of the game. This was noted as a bug by the development team, but over two years later has STILL NOT BEEN FIXED.
The GL playerbase will continue to BM about "Oh ffbe just copy/pastes all the stuff over from JP." It does not, it will copy paste over a majority of the bugs, add in additional ones with GL exclusive content, and most importantly, strips down rewards to the bare minimum needed to attract new players or incentivize keeping older ones. Wait...did I say wanting to keep the old players?
The third anniversary was the most special to us all, where all the players who've been playing since the beginning with summon tickets equal to our total login days, which while it had lower rates, was actually fun and said "We care about you and thank you for the years you've spent with us."
Instead we got 500 slot tokens for randomized rewards (not that random, the rates are mostly fixed to 7th place, see Slots De Nichol as a meme) that you have to use one at a time. No tickets or rewards for people who have stuck with the game for years, only a focus on returning players or new ones.
The biggest problem possibly however is how they've completely abandoned original or even reused content from the JP version in favor of limited time events where you must spend to keep up with the rankings of other people in order to gain progression through gear, but there's no content being added to the game that will use it other than more limited time events.
They've even taken player surveys of 6500 people, and during their live anniversary stream, whenever an answer came up, their responses were "Oh this is nice, sure!" to abject silenced horror and quick dismissals of several answers with no responses. They know what they're doing at this stage in the lifecycle.
Gumi Singapore does not care about player retention anymore, they've sacrificed so much of the core values they used to value years ago. Please be advised that while you should play this game, to not fall into the same cycle that so many before have, that spending your money here is a complete waste of your resources you could do several better things with in trying to revive the world's economy post pandemic.
Llevo jugando desde que salió, allá por verano de 2016 y me sigue gustando como el primer dÃa. Al principio era bastante chusta, los rates de 5 estrellas era 1%, te podÃa caer un cristal arcoÃris y ser una unidad muy mala, me llegaron a salir una Lenna y una Garnet de un cristal arcoiris. Actualmente dan muchas recompensas, subieron rates, tickets de selección, un montón de tiradas gratuitas... muy muy recomendable, y para la gente como yo que lleva jugando mucho y está muy equipada siguen saliendo nuevos retos cada cierto tiempo. ME ENCANTA.
This game does three very important things for me: 1) First off, it takes classic characters and newer characters from all across the Final Fantasy franchise and makes them fit well together. That's where the Dissidia games went wrong - though I still love those. Despite different themes and styles in each Final Fantasy, this crossover has its own style and all of the crossovers match. Which is great! And a rare thing to see in most crossover games. 2) Secondly, the gameplay is solid. I expected it to be another gimmick with bad gameplay. But was overjoyed to find that combat is fun, in-depth, and interactive. The quests are cool. Dungeons and exploration was much better done than I anticipated. 3) Finally, most importantly for online mobile games in this day and age, it is NOT pay to win. You can buy things with real money if you want, but this game offers enjoyable and rewarding grinding that makes using real world money obsolete. Honestly, paying for content in thus game would deprive yourself of the fun of unlocking it.
All in all; an amazing blend of classic FF, New FF, and entirely original content with solid gameplay and highly tuned stat/equipment progression.
Fantastic graphics (IMO), story, characters, gameplay etc.
Issues with the game is:
-A lot of bugs and it takes them several months to fix it. Most of them are still not fixed -Players do not know how to gear their units -Powercreeping -People only care about the meta, rather than play just for fun
