Square Enix Announces New Game for iOS and Android

[Langin]

Square Enix used a teaser site today to announce a new game for the iPhone and iPad, but like all videogame companies wanting to get people talking, they provide almost no details. We don't even know the game's title. All they've done is tweeted a link to the site.

In the tweet, Square Enix calls this a new project, so it's probably not an installment of any of their existing franchises. According to trusty ol' Google, the French phrase on the site translates to, "The world is illusion. The nocturnal dreams are truth." The people they credit for making the game have worked on previous Square Enix series, including Final Fantasy.

As with all interesting teaser announcements, we'll keep you informed as we hear more about this project. To us, the most exciting takeaway from this is that Square Enix is continuing to focus resources on iOS. Now if only they'd release Final Fantasy Tactics already...

Sounds good to me

Reminds my of The World Ends With You! / It looks like it could be good!

its not gonna be a simple game considering the artwork above. I hope its more exciting than chaos rings and that they should focus on storyline, environment and gameplay over graphics which would just increase price and decrease instant excitement

Hi Square Enix,

Where's Dragon Quest X?

Lots of Love,
Wii owners

Not my type of game, but it might possibly be the first actual game for the iPhone.

Sounds like that Atlus game, Catherine, somewhat.

Either way, I'll probably pick it up on my Dad's phone if I don't have an Android of my own by the time it releases.

This is just gonna drain my battery even more..

I wasn't a big fan of Chaos Rings (which I believe was Square's last original iOS outing) so I'm not really hopeful for whatever this may be. Plus just from what I see so far the art style looks very "been there, done that".

How so?

Sounds nice, I'll probably buy it once it's out. I still need to beat Chaos Rings, though. X-x

It just looks like The World Ends With You with a lot more emo douche. Snore.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

I'm not gonna lie, despite it being an SE game, this game seems as if it will rely on fan service. If you remove the creature the female is holding, she's wearing very little, and the man seems like someone straight out of an Ecchi Shoujo manga. I wouldn't say the art style reminds me of TWEWY where the art style relied more on colors and the details of the characters rather than the detail of the artwork, while this reminds me more of something that indulges in the artwork to evoke a sense of attractiveness in the players toward the characters in the game based on the art being completely self-inspired and on-the-surface rather than being inspired by the characters' persona. Though the concepts do seem similar and honestly that's just what I get from that one picture.

Hmm, looks good. I might try it as long as they don't charge an extortionate price.

 

[Deleted_171835]

I don't own any of the devices the game is being released for.

It doesn't seem like I'll be missing much, anyways.

 

[Sop]

I have played so many games on my iPod touch and people trying to make real games for these devices always turn out to be meh..

 

[ZAFDeltaForce]

Awesome, looks like getting an iPhone wasn't such a bad idea afterall

 

[Windaga]

Android as in the Android OS, right? I'll be able to play this on a Xoom? Because if so, awesome.

If not, ; ;.
