"Today has seen the kickoff of the New York Comic Con and with that, a ton of news from the gaming world. One franchise in particular has seen a ton of news today and that is the always-popular Final Fantasy series. There has been news on the Playstation 3 version of Final Fantasy 14, a new trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 and more so check out our full wrap up of Final Fantasy news below!"
Final Fantasy Type-0 will soon be getting a Japanese demo titled "Natsubi". It is still uncertain if or when the US and Europer will see a demo or even a likely release date for western audiences.
"With everyone's attention being grasped by Final Fantasy XIII-2 and wondering if it will indeed be any good and revive some Final Fantasy magic in our hearts, the upcoming PSP title Final Fantasy Type-0 has somewhat fell under the radar. The game itself was originally billed to be released this summer, but now the game's developers have pushed the title back to later this year, citing the Playstation Network outage as the main reason behind this decision."
Square Enix, during their 1st Production Department Premiere in Roppongi Hills, has formally unveiled the rumored Final Fantasy Type-0. Final Fantasy Type-0 is the new title for the publisher's PSP title Final Fantasy Agito XIII. The game is scheduled for a summer 2011 release in Japan and will ship on 2 UMDs.
"Asked for a status update on Agito's production, Tabata said "The 3rd Birthday takes priority, but development is still steadily progressing. I believe it will be an FF that differs from the image fans have."
Asked what this means, he responded, "We're making it into a game where you can feel the true pain and weight as a war story. Because it has some harsh portrayals, Kitase (producer Yoshinori Kitase) is freqently making checks."
The Art Director for FINAL FANTASY Agito XIII has recently commented on the Square Enix Members Twitter Page on the progress of Agito.
He didn't say much, but he notes that they will be able to show something soon. With E3 coming up, maybe we will get an Official Announcement for the English Release of Agito?
Always good to see FNC news.
In a recent interview with Motomu Toriyama, he revealed some small information about the upcoming games in the Fabula Nova Crystallis Series, FINAL FANTASY Versus XIII and FINAL FANTASY Agito XIII.
He stated that Versus and Agito wont be Sequels to the recently released title FINAL FANTASY XIII. They will be their own stories, but will follow a Common Mythos. Players of FFXIII will already be aware of the Fal'Cie and L'Cie. These are set to appear in the upc...
"In the most recent issue of Famitsu, Nomura reveals that he is working on two unannounced titles. He gives some updates, saying that they are working to bring up the quality so that the difference between real time and pre-renders in the upcoming Final Fantasy Versus XIII is seamless. He also says that development for Agito is going favorably."
In the latest Famitsu, Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura and Motomu Toriyama discussed Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Final Fantasy Agito XIII and a little bit of Parasite Eve: Third Birthday. Most of it wasn't overly new information, though it was mentioned that FFXIII will be install-free on the PS3.

Whilst many were hoping that Square Enix would divulge some new information regarding certain titles, particularly Final Fantasy Versus XIII, at the Tokyo Game Show, it appears that Square have no plans to do so, rather their TGS line-up will focus solely on their Winter line-up of Final Fantasy XIII and Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep.
Due for release tommorow, it seems that scans of CLOUD have already leaked the internet containing Final Fantasy XIII Compilation, and we've got them all for you below.

While I think Square Enix are getting kind of greedy to be forcing people to buy a book to learn info about their titles I'm sure most fans won't matter. On Amazon Japan a second Cloud book is up, to be released on December 12th, already announced to be packed with screenshots, art and info on all the games and products mentioned below. Let's hope its actually something substantial this time, rather than the tiny fragments we usually get.
Within the past several years, Square Enix has been on the ball with remakes of their classic Final Fantasy games. And rumors of a remake for the huge and popular Final Fantasy 7 have been been buzzing around the net.
Square Enix president Yoichi Wada explains how there has been a remake boom lately, "The price of games is high, and consumers tend to be wary of buying games they are unfamiliar with".
That's an interesting reason for the increase of remake talk, but SE fans hope they do...
Square Enix has created their website for the upcoming Tokyo Game Show, and has uploaded their show lineup:

According to a interview translated by FinalFantasy-XIII.net with Square Enix designer Tetsuya Nomura, Final Fantasy XIII Agito, which is coming out for the PSP and mobile phones, won't hit shelves in Japan until FFXIII and Versus are finished.
Gamers that've been looking to get their console Parasite Eve on for awhile now (ten years if you exclude the sequel, as some loyalists would), are in luck..kinda. The 3rd Birthday was announced for mobile phones some time ago, a spin-off from the PE series which features, to some extent anyway, series heroine Aya Brea. The great news here is at Squenixs DKΣ3713 party in Tokyo the other day, it was announced the title is now coming to PSP as well.
Furthermore, Final Fantasy Agito XIII has...
Recently Square Enix announced one of there cell phone games was to be cancelled due to financial reasons. It was speculated Final Fantasy XIII Agito was the unlucky victim as reported here
However in a upcoming event Square Enix have confirmed two of its biggest cell phone titles Agito and Kingdom Hearts: Coded making an appearance. Not much point to be advertising a cancelled product is there so these two titles at least appear to be safe.
