seeing and recognizing every move reference is fucking amazing

[@qadi796]

Especially what torgal did when he fought benadikta

[@Za_Phantom]

@qadi796 YEAH ITS SICK

[@nugzmedallion8929]

I kinda rage quit Tekken because I was kinda trash, but THIS CHARACTER might get me to give it another try, because I personally really enjoyed FF16. (I really don't know why some people have to be such sticklers about what Final Fantasy "should be.") He looks like he's gonna be cracked.

[@v.m.6549]

TekkenTwitter is having a meltdown because is not Tifa, im loving it, Clive looks cool

[@ΆγιοςΤιμοθέος-ρ5υ]

Awhh screw them 😂💯 I’m starting to get the Vibe that Tifa fans are Lucky Chloe fans who want to piss other players off online, cause I’m seeing actual FF fans hyped for this 💯😅

[@JinTekyta]

​@@ΆγιοςΤιμοθέος-ρ5υ I'm a Lucky Chloe main in T7 and I won't here this slander. Clive looks sick.

[@liljon042]

​@@ΆγιοςΤιμοθέος-ρ5υI'm getting the feeling that most people wanting Tifa are just coomers that want her to be in a bikini in this game. Getting sick and tired of those complainers, because clive looks sick as hell

[@RasnerG]

it's twitter they have a meltdown on everything minor

[@coffeebean_tamer]

Not me just sad we didnt get a D.O.A character

[@Gamercrew72]

As a massive final fantasy fan and tekken fan I love this

[@Azazel226]

Man they really went all out on the moveset and stage. Big props.

[@floridaman7206]

I was hoping for Tifa like most people, but ngl, they cooked with Clive. I recently got ff16 on steam sale and am really enjoying it. Clive is just a cool dude and good pick. The stage looks amazing as well. Overall really happy and I’ll get my Tifa fix when ff7 rebirth comes to pc next month

[@arpadszabo661]

I’m pretty sure Tifa is just a matter of time as well. Most likely after part 3 of the remake series comes out. But yeah, for everyone who played FF16, Clive hits hard. One of my favorite protags in the ff series.

[@Yorsem]

I'm such a huge FF16 fan this is amazing

[@MrCageCat]

Final Fantasy doesn't belong in a one on one fighting game where the majority of the cast are unarmed. Belongs in Soul Calibur.

[@apocalypse9199]

me too

[@toddhunter123]

I can see the genuine excitement here. One step closer to the "top 10 most unwanted additions to a fighting game roster" video and all those clicks it would bring.

[@M1d32]

A Final Fantasy only, Tekken style fighting game would be very lit.

[@shingofan]

Well, 14 and 16 were made by the same studio, so that mistake is understandable

[@boneheaded8919]

Not to mention that 14 also got a Collab with 16 so there's that too lol

[@fluffykitten077]

Don't worry, Crofts. Clive is in FF14 too. So you're not technically wrong!

[@brettdallman3885]

I personally like non fg guest characters in fighting games for the most part. As someone who dreams about turning almost anything I watch or play into a fighting game, I love seeing it realized

[@tabkg5802]

I knew that this would most likely be him lmao. Really happy to be honest even though I haven't played 16

[@tomfoolery8238]

Looks like Jin and Kazuya are guest characters and look so out of place in this high fantasy game. Also can't wait for Victor's brother Rogelio to replace Clive in Tekken 9.

[@pedroscoponi4905]

I was hoping and expecting to see Clive cameo in a fighting game, very happy about this :)

[@GeneralGlockasiah]

He would fit better in Soul Calibur

[@rhuxxinator9071]

As if soul calibur will come back. lets be fr and even if it does maybe 3 or 4 years from now its not like he would be relevant anymore. so stop with the stupid ass comment

[@th3mysty]

So would Victor

[@bronzemuseum504]

that moveset is wild but fits so much with all the summons. Love it.

[@JiooguProductions]

He probably has a heihachi like powerup for one round where he uses Limit Break

[@depictiongames9758]

Oh that would be SO COOL

[@jameji_phd]

Message from the future, looks like limit break is just his heat mode, even better

[@shmerkyluciano2102]

I literally finished 16 a few days ago this is so amazing

[@วิชชากรสุขวัฒน์]

Kuma vs Clive in World Tour 2025 and Kuma still win.

idc what anyone says im pumped for this. tifa woulda made alot more sense but, i love clive.

[@spectrumbots4268]

He's going to be S-tier on day one. 🤣

[@kingleonidas2182]

Well erm actually 🤓 Both those locations were at Phoenix Gate. One simply occurred within Clive’s mind when he returned to the gate years later.

[@MICHAELTUMANGDAY]

Harada really loves sword users.

[@henrybitencourt]

He probably mains swordies in platfrom fighters (don't blame him they're really Cool)

[@rangikumatsumoto3143]

he dont like tekken players though apperently

[@jameji_phd]

​@@rangikumatsumoto3143given how Tekken players will complain about quite literally anything he does and start fires on purpose online (part of why we don't get patch notes in advance), I can't blame him if he hates Tekken fans. They fucking suck.

[@jk8190]

He seems to be more suitable as a guest character for Soul Calibur rather than Tekken

[@mustabindawind]

Fantastic guest character...wouldn't have expected the crossover...definitely an interesting one

[@TheHappySaturnian]

He look like he has a lot of noctis’s kit

[@Latino_Burrito]

Nah not really, like sure they both have weapons and magic but noctis barely used any magic, he pretty much only used them in his throws. Also I haven’t played FF15 in years but if I remember correctly the “magic” in that game was like…. Consumable items?? So it wasn’t even really magic lmao. The most magical thing about noctis was his use of weapons and teleportation. Clive, being from a more midevil setting, as we can see has a TON of magic it looks like. But unlike noctis all of Clive’s weapons have magical properties. He has his flame sword, electric spears and idk what else lmao I didn’t play the full game. Noctis weapons were just normal weapons he could just summon them and make them disappear. I’m rambling, my point is they’re actually super different. Maybe I can see some similarities?? But I do think people saying he’s just noctis (not that you were saying that) is just a negative bias, and them both being FF characters that happen to both use weapons and some magic is about as much of a similarity you’re gonna get imo.

[@TheHappySaturnian]

@ I’m saying the animations looked very similar. Not the effects or the weapons themselves but the animations such as them sharing a demo man type low

[@bwareist]

He has a bit of Noctis, a bit of Kazumi and a bit of Devil Jin

[@Dyleniz]

He has a bit of noctis and kuni moves but mostly its from ff16

[@matthewwysong644]

​@@Latino_Burritoin 16, Clive has 8 elemental abilities he can choose from, plus his base form and a bonus spoiler unaspected one- Ifrit- neutral, fire Phoenix- Wing, fire Garuda- Claw, wind Ramuh- Staff, thunder Titan- Fist, earth Bahamut- other wings, light Shiva- cape, ice Odin- katana, darkness Leviathan- mouth gun arm thing, water

[@CardanaWandra]

it's like miguel and shaheen getting fused together and get isekai'd and then come back

[@Xeltos]

Having Tifa would've been a dream but god damn Clive looks amazing.

[@bluedragon5049]

Customize him to be nero or dante from dmc

[@Yorsem]

5:43 that seems to be a stance, it's not a heat engager/dash

[@mc_zittrer8793]

Well, I was hoping for Blaze Fielding, so this is quite a leap from what I wanted to see. That said, Clive does look like he got some sauce, and I'm more interested in him than Heihachi. Not enough to get the 3 day early access, but I think I will try him out at some point. Soul Calibur is way too big a risk for Namco in this current economic climate, so I definitely foresee more sword n' sorcery type characters getting drip-fed overtime - including Soul Calibur characters, themselves. MItsurugi, Taki and Ivy all seem like telegraphed characters at this point, especially with Yoshimitsu in the opening roster.

[@via_negativa6183]

Blaze is a slept on pick

[@Flarestorm]

Seeing clive in Tekken is like seeing Byleth in smash.

[@ilikestamps2978]

Well at least it's a cool FF character this time 😂

[@TheAciditty]

Give it 2 months and then see if everyone is downplaying him then you can start to know if he is broken or not.

[@Jon_Doe]

Ff16 was my first final fantasy I played and beat. What an amazing character and story.

[@raphaelLopes-jaboo]

totally broken, and not the FF character we really wanted. BUT I CANT WAIT TO PLAY

[@ChristopherWallace-k5k]

great, a soul caliber character on tekken. just pick him and you'll win!!

[@Wolfedge75]

Haven’t played FF16, enlighten me on Clive as I only know him as “Ifrit Incarnate”

[@PapaDeusVult]

There are individuals in the world of FFXVI that have the power to embody the classic summons of Final Fantasy (Ifrit, Garuda, Odin, Titan, Shiva, Ramuh, Phoenix, Bahamut) which they call in-world as 'Eikons'. These people are called Dominants. Clive is the Dominant of Ifrit, an Eikon that nobody knew about because the only Eikon representing fire was Phoenix. In FFXVI, Dominants also have a half-Eikon form in which they're still human but are wielding a manifestation of their Eikon's power to have a distinct advantage in battle. Clive is shown to be able to steal the power of the other Dominants and wield their powers as his own. But, he can only ever turn into Ifrit during Eikon battles. The Eikonic abilities he steals are basically loadouts during your adventure

[@viralshark]

My pfp makes my opinion obvious.

[@piffsponza]

Ff16...and that was Pheonix.

[@zayunaheimdell1317]

@jmcrofts TBF, it’s not a bad mistake. Both games are lead by producer Yoshi-P and his team BS3 so it’s all good in my books =)
