<p><em>Yo-Kai Watch </em>fever seems like it will never stop its full-court press on the world. The popular franchise from Japan is now infiltrating <em>Final Fantasy XIV </em>in a summer-only event that will see 13 different Yo-Kai appear in the game. On top of this, players will have the opportunity to get unique rewards that can only be received from the event, including Yo-Kai themed minions, weapons and mounts.</p>

<p>All of this seems to be a tie-in to Japan&#8217;s release of <em>Yo-Kai Watch 3: Sushi </em>and <em>Yo-Kai Watch 3: Tempura</em>, which both release in Japan in July of this year. Japanese players will be able to get Chocobo and Moogle versions of Yo-Kai in <em>Yo-Kai Watch 3</em>, referred to as &#8220;Chocobonyan&#8221; and &#8220;Mooglenyan&#8221;, respectively. This will be exclusive to Japanese 3DS players.</p>

<p>The event <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/articles/final-fantasy-14yo-kai-watch-crossover-on-the-way-/1100-6439356/">had been previously announced last month</a>. More details about the collaboration will come later, but I for one am pretty excited to see Level-5 games infiltrating other popular franchises. The Yo-Kai look especially cute and the Whisper mount pictured above looks far too awesome to pass up. Plus, weapons with Yo-Kai on them sounds like a very unique thing to have in your arsenal and could only result in striking fear in your enemy&#8217;s hearts.</p>
<p>This <a href="https://bagogames.com/yo-kai-watch-2-confirmed-for-us/">follows news that </a><em>Yo-Kai Watch 2 </em>will be coming to the US this fall.</p>
