Square Enix was initially worried about Final Fantasy X-2’s name
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Direct sequels to mainline Final Fantasy games isn’t something that we see very often. But with Final Fantasy X, that’s a path Square Enix decided to pursue. The RPG ended up seeing a sequel with Final Fantasy X-2 that brought back familiar faces from the original.
Producer Yoshinori Kitase spoke about Final Fantasy X-2 in a recent blog post, and revealed some interesting information about its name. It turns out that deciding on a title for the project was “one of the biggest challenges” the team encountered. Kitase actually revealed that with X-2, Square Enix “was initially worried that it would be mistaken for Final Fantasy XII and turned it down.” But “they’ve grown fond of it” since that point.
