 This Final Fantasy title was developed by many of the same people  who worked on _Fainaru fantajî takutikkusu (1997) (VG)_ (qv) and  _Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (2003) (VG)_ (qv). While Tactics and  XII take place in the same world (in a region known as Ivalice),  Tactics Advances Ivalice is a separate magical dreamworld, based on  XIIs setting. Interviews with the development team have revealed  that, in the true Ivalice, XII takes place in Tactics future.
