Square Enix has apparently opened a new teaser site for something tentatively going by the name “Team 043”. You can find it here.
The page doesn’t reveal much information, but Square Enix’s title seems to be a “ranobe-style RPG” or “light novel” RPG.
We’re assuming that this isn’t an April Fool’s joke on Square Enix’s part. There’s nothing on the teaser site indicating that it’s fake, but on a day like today, you never know!

Takashi Iizuka on Sonic Lost World’s Yoshi/Zelda DLC – development, no Mario stage, more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
When Sonic Lost World was first revealed, not many would have predicted that the game would eventually feature crossover DLC with Yoshi and The Legend of Zelda. So how the heck did these two Nintendo collaborations come to be?
Producer Takashi Iizuka, speaking with Japanese outlet 4Gamer, said the concept came to him about six months prior to releasing the game. “This time, Sonic Lost World is a title that only released on Nintendo hardware, which is an opportunity that I couldn’t believe, collaborating together,” he said.
Originally, Iizuka hoped to include the Yoshi and Zelda Zones in the main game. But scheduling was too late, and they became free DLC items instead.
4Gamer did ask if Mario was ever considered as a potential candidate for Nintendo DLC. The short answer: not really.
