The story mode is criticized for being short, disjointed, and lacking depth, with many players finding it difficult to unlock cutscenes through repetitive battles. While some appreciate the character models and the nostalgic connection to previous games, the overall narrative is deemed lackluster and frustrating, often feeling like an afterthought to the combat mechanics. Many reviewers express disappointment over the grind required to access story content, leading to a perception of the game as primarily a combat-focused experience rather than a cohesive storytelling one.
- “I love unlocking the story segments, the weapons, the levels (yes, there’s a Narshe stage) and huge cast of characters and the summons.”
- “The story mode isn't that long but it's pretty interesting.”
- “Story is a sequel to the PSP games, but it's a standalone tale so playing the prior installment is not necessary.”
- “I played for six hours and the story makes no sense at all, even after unlocking several of the movies that are supposed to give you insight into the world; there is no consecutive information related to the last.”
- “The story is lackluster and short.”
- “Instead of a cohesive story mode where it's integrated into the gameplay, you have to grind for cutscenes through playing multiple battles.”

The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some praising its addictive mechanics and colorful graphics reminiscent of previous PSP titles, while others criticize it for being repetitive, lacking variety, and requiring online play for a full experience. Many users noted the absence of offline content and customization options, leading to a perception of diminished effort compared to earlier entries in the series. Overall, the gameplay appeals primarily to hardcore Final Fantasy fans, but may not satisfy a broader audience.

- “Gameplay-wise, this game is great in my opinion.”
- “The same mechanics from the PSP games are present (striking with bravery attacks to build up your damage, then unleashing that damage on weakened opponents) and the graphics are colorful and bright.”
- “Unfortunately, when it boils down to the mechanics, the game really starts to fall apart.”
- “In an era of standout fighting games, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT's lack of content, character customization, and mediocre gameplay mark a step down from previous games in the series and an unacceptable lack of effort from Square Enix.”
- “Gameplay quickly becomes repetitive with very little variation; visuals get indecipherably chaotic, and there's a disappointing selection of modes.”
