After working in this field for many years, I decided to start my own company because I want to draw on all the good aspects of games to help create the future. From the viewpoint of educating children, they offer role models that inspire children to want to grow up to be like them. Games are very effective as an experiential form of media. Instead of just cramming in knowledge, people can delve inside the game, maneuver characters and learn through experience, which leaves a much deeper impression. I don’t understand what good video games can do for the world.” When looking at my kids, I feel that they study less because they want to play games. “The younger staff members are enthusiastic about making this game, but I’m not too keen about it. According to Tabata, the then IPC CEO Xavier Gonzalez said: Meetings started to take place to discuss the project, but since it was still being deliberated by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) at the time, Tabata remained undecided. If successful, it would be the first of its kind in the world. The company is led by Hajime Tabata, who famously directed Final Fantasy XV and was also involved in developing many other titles including the life simulation game Monster Rancher 2, and the mobile action RPG Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII.Īfter Tabata left Square Enix in 2018, he was approached with the idea of creating a video game based on the Paralympic Games. The Pegasus Dream Tour was created by JP Games. Your avatar uses prosthetic arms or legs or a wheelchair, to run around and live inside the virtual city. The game largely operates in autoplay and players get involved by supporting Mine. They also take the initiative to meet and become friends with other avatars from all over the world. They train of their own volition every day, go through physical conditioning and compete successfully in competitions. Their goal is to win gold medals in the Pegasus Para Grand Prix.

Users first take a selfie of themselves to create an avatar called “Mine.” Mine are characters with individual souls who independently move around the virtual city called Pegasus City. If you start playing this game expecting it to be a regular sports game, you’ll be surprised by the unique worldview it presents. The game also features nine real-life para-athletes. Players can participate in parasports tournaments such as athletics, boccia, football 5-a-side, and wheelchair basketball.
