Square Enix secret team working on an unannounced title photo

Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts producer Tetsuya Nomura told Famitsu that we could see a new Square Enix title later this year. In an interview wrap-up, Nomura teased: "There is also a secret team working on an unannounced title, so there is a chance that some information about that will be announced this year too, please continue looking forward to these announcements."

That's all you get for now. Stay tuned.

Whatever this ends up being, it will sit nicely alongside announcements on Final Fantasy Versus XIII, the HD Final Fantasy X remake and whatever the company has planned for the 10th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts. It's going to be a good year for JRPG gamers.

Their backlog of "games to be released" seems larger than my backlog of "games to be beaten".

I'm a fan of Square-Enix, generally, but I dislike their tendency to announce games so far in advance. I much prefer how Atlus does it: they announce it when it's almost completed.

"and whatever the company has planned for the 10th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts."

If they don't announce an HD collection then I don't give a shit.

I love hearing news from SE, but usually all it means is that they might have a game coming, sometime, on some system in the future.

Won't believe it till its released, and by then I'm sure it'll already be the next generation.

But seriously Square, finish whats on your plate before you start dessert.

Also: Look at this box art -- See anything wrong with this picture?



Even the box art reflects that this thing was announced way too far in advance.

HD collection with KH1, 2, Re:Chain of Memories and Birth By Sleep. Final Mix versions. Include trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3. Actually release Kingdom Hearts 3 by the end of calendar year 2013.

And for fuck's sake finish Versus XIII

Final Fantasy XVI or Kingdom Hearts 3.

Either way... meh. Stop announcing games that we're not going to see for 5+ years. It's getting pretty tiresome S-E.

You can only remain hyped for so long before apathy sets in. Unfortunately for S-E, due to their track record, I just can't get hyped for their games anymore. The wait is far too long.

finish Versus XIII first please. it would have been cool if they hadn't announce the game 6 years ago and the secret game they're gonna announce this year is Versus XIII complete with all the trailer they have shown so far and the gameplay shown last jan 2011. would have hype the hell out of everyone.

If it has Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts in the title I'll pass. Both of those series need to go away for about 5-10 years.

Chrono Break or TWEWY 2 please.

It not a spoiler so stop crying, Game Informer even mentions it in its review to back up what they class as weak story telling.

*looks at header picture*...that...looks like Sazh!

Holy shit, how about a Final Fantasy sidequel to FFXIII where Sazh is some kind of 70's cop? It could be a buddy cop show with Sazh and the Frocobo!
