Lost Sphear (Square Enix + Tokyo RPG Factory) announced
After a week of teasing a new title, Square Enix, through their smaller studio, Tokyo RPG Factory, has revealed their latest project: Lost Sphear. Screenshots seem to show that this will be an isometric turned based RPG, made by the same team that created "I am Setsuna". The music will be composed by Tomoki Miyoshi, who helped created the soundtracks for Soulcalibur V, Steins;Gate, and I am Setsuna. Lost Sphear is scheduled to release in 2018, digitally, for PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4 platforms. A collector's edition will be available through Square Enix's online store, which is the only way to buy the game physically.
