Toshiro Tsuchida

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Toshiro Tsuchida (土田 俊郎 Tsuchida Toshirō?) (born 1964) is a Japanese game director and game producer currently working for Square Enix (formerly Square). He is most notably credited for directing titles in the Front Mission series and was also the battle director for Final Fantasy X.

As battle director of Final Fantasy X, he pulled away the Active Time Battle (ATB) system, which started with Final Fantasy IV and originally designed by Hiroyuki Ito, replacing it with a more strategic battle system, which is known as the Conditional Turn-Based Battle (CTB) system. He kept Final Fantasy IV in mind when working on Final Fantasy X. He has recently worked on Front Mission 4, which was released in North America in June 2004. He is currently working on Final Fantasy XIII as the battle director and on Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King as the producer.

Tsuchida was the head of Square Enix's Production Team 6.
