The event story is supervised by Motomu Toriyama with character supervision by Tetsuya Nomura. Collaboration weapons including Ultima Weapon, Nirvana, and Masamune are obtainable by defeating specific enemies in the Record of Archfiends mode. A Cactuar companion is available as an event reward. The collaboration coincides with campaigns celebrating 20 million downloads of the mobile title.
