New Sakaguchi game in "final phase" News

Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese

20 October, 2009

Hironobu Sakaguchi, creator of Final Fantasy, is already in the final stage of development on his latest game.

A poem on his Mistwalker blog (spotted by VG247) contained the lines, "I am working on a new project. Now we just started going into the final phase of production."

"No matter what, I will make it really good..."

We have no idea what the game will be. After making Blue Dragon (plus DS adaptations), Lost Odyssey and canning Cry On last Christmas, Sakaguchi's Mistwalker studio has been absent from headlines.

Lost Odyssey was absolutely brilliant, so I'm hoping for more of that kind of quality.

Well, if this isn't a DS game then I'll eat my fictional hat.

No way a 360/PS3 release would have been kept secret.

I enjoyed Lost Odyssey, but I had to stop playing it 2/3 of the way through because of that ruinous levelling system. You'd level up really fast to a certain 'plateau' predefined by the game developers, and then experience points would dry up just like that *snaps fingers*.

Great news. Admittedly I wasn't keen on Blue Dragon at all. Lost Odessy was great, so hopefully things can only get better!

Levelling up system was fine by me. Meant there was no grinding which is much worse. Suikoden uses the same thing and it's what makes that game so good.

Hmmm! I saved my game just before a really hard boss battle, but I'm already at the 'level cap' for the area so I'm finding it really hard to get past him without doing days and days worth of monster culling. I've probably screwed up my characters with the equipment/skills I'm using or something.
Shame, that, because the story and characters are the best I've seen in a JRPG for a long time. Jansen, what a hero!

He certainly has moved on from Square.

Nowadays Square Enix would announce a game BEFORE starting work on it.
