Looks like Square Enix came through with the announcement sooner than I thought! They’ve also released the first screenshots and logo of the game. You can find the images below.


Square Enix today opened the official website for Theatrhythm Final Fantasy. Although there isn’t much content available just yet, there is a key point included on a subpage.

The developer behind the title is indieszero Corporation. Some of the company’s previous work includes Electroplankton and Retro Game Challenge. indieszero’s latest title, DualPenSports, was released a few weeks ago.

This news come at a bit of a surprise, as the developer behind Theatrhythm was thought to be Jupiter. UTV Ignition’s Shane Bettenhausen led fans to believe that the company behind The World Ends with You was making Square Enix’s new project.

Square Enix still hasn’t shared any official screenshots or details, though with the site’s opening, a formal announcement should be made shortly.

Be sure to check out the new site for a neat, subtle 3D effect.


The latest issue of Jump revealed that One Piece: Gigant Battle 2 New World is coming to the DS. Details from the magazine state that it will feature over forty characters. Also expect four player battles when the game arrives in Japan this Fall. Like the original release, Gigant Battle 2 is being developed by Ganbarion.

The game hasn’t been formally announced yet, so information about the title is limited. Expect more news soon.

This information comes from Ken Berry, Director of Publishing at XSEED…

“We are looking at some 3DS titles, but for now I don’t think we’re ready to jump into that market just yet unless the perfect opportunity comes by. We’re still sort of sitting back and watching how the market plays out on the 3DS.”

I can’t blame XSEED for exercising some caution with the 3DS at the moment. There haven’t been many standout third-party games released, so it would be difficult to judge how their software would perform. Plus, the market for actual system sales has been somewhat volatile. XSEED might be more willing to publish games once the 3DS has established itself more in the industry.
