Square Enix and Capcom Announce An Announcement

[drasil]

"This time it's Square Enix's turn to announce a new (or, knowing Square Enix, old) game through the medium of time itself. The countdown takes place on a blank canvas with a landscape sketch taking shape in the bottom hand corner, along with the number four. We imagine this will expand to fill the page as the countdown makes its way to zero, which will occur on July 6."

"The number 1560 simply fades in and out, moving from left to right. While some are postulating it's another Onimusha game (the first game took place in the year 1560, and is based on the Battle of Okehazama)"

Ooohhh... Square Enix has given us another surprise. Could it be the new Kingdom Hearts 3? Since SE has showed many new games at E3. Like Final Fantasy XIV and XIII versus, XIII and the KH spin offs. I don't could be something brought back from the dead.

Maybe Masuno or what his name is back... Im just excited...

Hm, if we're lucky, it COULD be a new game! Although I highly doubt it....

[jasix]

Hmmm i wonder what it could be, what does the 4 mean? and if you turn your volume up and listen you can hear a 8-bit song playing too, anyone recognise the tune?

It could be an FF5 DS remake, with the 4 referencing the 4 Warriors Of The Dawn or w/e they were called

*prays for Threads of Fate/Dewprism sequel*

Personally from that art style I'm getting a Valkyria Chronicles vibe... but that's owned by Sega.

Also, a countdown timer again? Come on lets start guessing the extensions.

I think 2 times after this one rolls out.

go Kingdom Hearts 3!!

I hope it is a remake for Final Fantasy V but I have my doubts.

Turn your speakers to their highest.
A clue?

[drasil]

I'm hoping it's some sort of FF remake but not a just some DS remake like FF4. The FF4 remake was good, but imagine something like FF6 having a remake on the PS3.
There's also some speculation (more then likely wishful thinking) that it's a a sequel to Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross since SE has been cracking down on those fan-made sequels.

Please let it be an onimusha game oh please don't make it an RPG then

New update to the SE teaser site. There is a Dragon now and the music might have changed.

The music is still the same on the Square one.
Also we have an update from Capcom as well?

Maybe the Square one is somethign having to do with Bahamut?

Did they ever release that Blood Of the Bahamut thing?
