Square Enix has announced a new feature for Final Fantasy XI, the long-awaited player vs player mode. To make this new feature compatible with the game's story, the development team had Vana'diel's four nations set up a board for the International Resolution through Non-lethal Conflict (abbreviated: Conflict). According to this ancient code, simulated battles will be fought in Vana 'diel. The first Conflict will be based on training exercises by the Royal Knights of San d'Oria. Currently, Square Enix is thinking about implementing other forms of simulated combat in the future.
