Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu is teasing a new game for their next issue. Next week, Famitsu will unveil a new strategy role-playing title in a popular franchise. Famitsu didn’t say what platform(s) the title is being developed for, so we’ll have to wait and see what the game is all about next week. Will it be Fire Emblem? No, probably not.

“We have something we’re in the process of lighting up right now that I can’t talk about but I’m super excited about. I don’t want to be too nebulous here, but fans of a certain franchise will be very happy.”

“And [Dark Void Zero is] selling, just for the record, very, very well. We’re actually really pleased. In some ways, it’s actually exceeding my expectations as to how it did, so we’ll actually be looking at some other opportunities. I’m not saying necessarily 8-bit focused, not even necessarily DSiWare-focused, but there’s some gained from learning that we take from Dark Void Zero and from Other Ocean in particular that turned out great.”

Mr. Svensson would not say anything about the mysterious downloadable title. The game may (or may not) be for WiiWare/DSiWare, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
