Official material for Final Fantasy Resonance has named only a handful of places so far, and as of September 12, 2026 the name of the world itself has not been confirmed in any official source for this game. What is known: the story starts in the Kingdom of Grandshelt, the setting is laid out on a walkable world map with towns and dungeons placed on it, and ships carry travelers between continents, so the world spans more than one landmass. The table below collects every named location and what official sources say about each.
Named Locations
Location | What Is Known |
|---|---|
The Kingdom of Knights, where the story begins. Its people live peaceful lives blessed by the power of crystals. In the opening, the capital comes under attack by Veritas of the Dark, and the king is rescued by Rain and Lasswell. | |
Earth Shrine | The shrine tied to the Earth Crystal. The magical barrier protecting it waned, prompting the royal decree that opens the story; in its innermost chamber the Earth Crystal is shattered. The full sequence is retold at Story and Setting. |
Town of Mitra | A town with an inn. After the story progresses past a certain point, edition and pre-order bonus items are claimed from the postbox in front of the inn. Item lists are at Editions and Pre-Order Bonuses. |
Dwarf workshop | A workshop mentioned in developer interviews, which confirm that dwarves exist in this world. It has not been shown in released material as of September 12, 2026, and no further details are available. |
As of September 12, 2026 no other towns, regions, or continent names have been published, and nothing should be assumed about the wider map beyond what the table lists.
Locations Announced July 16, 2026
Square Enix named two cities the party visits mid-journey, along with several places attached to systems rather than to the critical path.
Location | What Is Known |
|---|---|
The Machinopolis. A steel-forged city where engineers abound, and the birthplace of airship technology. Once home to the first Cid, whose name each era's finest engineer now takes. | |
The Aquapolis. Capital of the Olderion Federation, blessed with abundant crystalline waters, safeguarded by the Wardens of the Waters, the prayers of the Maiden of Water, and an esper called the God of Water. A shipbuilding and naval transport hub before airships spread. A jump-rope minigame is played in the city. | |
Dirnado | The region Dilmagia sits in, and Lid's home. |
Water Shrine | The site the Wardens of the Waters have guarded for generations. Nichol's family are among its longtime guardians. |
Sanctums of Light | Sites erected around the world where vision crystals are obtained. Visiting one lets the party revisit stories from past Final Fantasy games and unlock the Visions of legacy series heroes. Sanctums of Light is the official English name; the Japanese term reads literally as a shrine of light. |
Chamber of Arms | A room somewhere in the world where hints for each of the Twelve Legendary Arms can be viewed. The arms themselves are sealed at sites scattered across the world, and official material says a boss sleeps in each one: beating it breaks the seal and yields the strongest weapons and armour in the game. |
Locations Announced August 24, 2026
Two nations were named for the first time on August 24, 2026, and each is tied to a crystal of its own.
Location | What Is Known |
|---|---|
A powerful military nation and the home of the Fire Crystal. Rumor holds that Zoldaad means to use the airships and magitek weaponry it has mass-produced in recent years to invade neighboring countries. Life under the empire's tyranny is hard, domestic unrest is mounting, and a rebel army has risen out of it under Jake. | |
Mysidia, the Magiapolis | The legendary city of mages, known only in fairy tales. Some believe it fell to ruin long ago, others claim it persists to this day, and none can say for certain. Its advanced magical civilization is said to play host to the Ice Crystal. Sakura, one of the game's main characters, is a sage of the city. A game of tag through its streets, chasing moogles, is one of the game's minigames. |
Both entries also settle where two of the newly announced characters come from. Between them they add the Fire Crystal and the Ice Crystal to the Earth Crystal shattered in the opening. As of September 12, 2026 no official source for this game gives a total number of crystals, so this page does not state one.
The name of the world itself is still unconfirmed in every official source for this game as of that date, and no map has been published showing how these places relate to one another.
