Another Final Fantasy XIII incoming ? Video Games Update
Square Enix has informed the media that it will be announcing something new related to Final Fantasy XIII on September 1, 2012 at the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary event in Shibuya, Japan.
This news comes right after the rumours of Final Fantasy versus XIII (FFv13) being cancelled and many fans are once again optimistic that the game might still be in development after all and appear at the show. Many gamers are taking Square Enix silence as confirmation that the game might not be cancelled but is being kept under wraps by the publisher so as not to ruin the surprise reveal at the Shibuya event or the Tokyo Game Show 2012.
Square Enix has detailed the first day of the even to be the ?Final Fantasy XIII ? Lightning Saga: New Developments Presentation? which basically hints at an upcoming Final Fantasy XIII-3 announcement or additional downloadable content for Final Fantasy XIII-2.
Final Fantasy XIII was the first core Final Fantasy title to be released on the Xbox 360 in 2010 even though it was announced as an exclusive Playstation 3 title. Due to the lack of sales of the Xbox 360 in Japan, Microsoft helped in marketing the game which resulted in almost 2 million copies of the Xbox 360 version being sold. The number still paled in comparison to the Playstation 3 version of the game which sold almost 5 million units but Square Enix realised that there was a healthy market for the brand on the Xbox 360 as well.
FF13 managed to do well in the market but gamers and critics complained that the game was too linear for a JRPG. Square took note of the fan feedback and fixed all the issues in the sequel FF13-2 which came out last year and got generally positive reviews from critics but unlike its predecessor failed to do well in the market as gamers did not take a liking to FF13?s universe.
Square has however not given up on Lightning, the main protagonist of FF13 as FF13-3 seems to be on the horizon waiting for an announcement, even though she is not very popular with the fan-base who thinks of her as a female version of ?Cloud?, the protagonist of Final Fantasy 7 and lacking any personality.
It seems unlikely that Square Enix will comment on any rumours regarding FF13 and FFv13 and fans will have to wait until September 1, 2012 when speculation regarding the fate of the two games will finally end.
