Final Fantasy: The Crystal Bearers Coming This Winter
We have known for a while that Square Enix has planned for Final Fantasy: The Crystal Bearers to be released in Japan on November 26th, but it is now clear that the North America release of the game will come one month later, on December 26th, 2009. Yes that's right, the day after Christmas. Bummer.
This Final Fantasy game will be exclusive to the Nintendo Wii and has some 2 player co-op areas that might be interesting. I have provided a few pieces of artwork from the official fan kit, available at the FFCC: TCB website, which can be seen by clicking to view the full article.
Quote: A thousand years have passed since the events of the original Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. The destruction of the Yuke Crystal during the Great War had at once brought the victorious Lilty Tribe prosperity, the defeated Yuke Tribe apparent annihilation, and the world a new age of science and reason. In this new era exists a rare breed of powerful beings called "crystal bearers", whose seemingly magical abilities have led them to be feared and scorned by the public. The young mercenary Layle is one such crystal bearer, who has been hired to escort the new passenger airship Alexis, the pinnacle of Lilty technology and a symbol of their current dominance. However, when the Alexis is suddenly besieged by a horde of monsters, Layle comes face to face with an adversary thought to have vanished from the pages of history, on a quest that may threaten the future of the world.. |
The concept art sure looks great and colourful. I wonder if the people who make these games are still the same who once made the Mana series, the concept art is just up their alley.
