new FF for iOS/Android made by Kitase and "numbered FF staff"

they will show info on next week's famitsu.

It's supposedly a traditional RPG, not a remake of FF1 but something similar? A return to the roots of sorts. Kitase is producing, Nojima is writing the scenario, and the character designs are by Itahana.

Some additional details from the Sakaguchi/Kitase interview in Famitsu has been released:

- There map movement in the game will be automated, but the gameplay systems will be like a traditional FF
- He doesn't want it to feel inferior to a numbered FF game
- There will be Abilities and Jobs
- For a smartphone game, there is an unprecedented number of internal S-E developers working on this
- Many of them have worked on numbered FF games previously
- They're aiming for a smartphone game which is comparable to a console game
- The theme is "Warriors of Light"

Square Enix has filed for "MEVIUS FINAL FANTASY" trademark in Europe. Dunno if this is an iOS, handheld or console title.

Smoke thread if old.

Final Fantasy XIII-IV: Lightning's Mevius

Spoiler

[Kain]

Mevius... Moebius... Xenogears remake?

 

[Yoshichan]

FFVII REMAKE

XENOGEARS 2

FFXIII-4

 

[Wenger'sBakedBaguettes]

Final Fantasy IV: Before Mevius

 

[ShogunDarius]

mevius? kinda sounds like me vs final fantasy, a phone game if so

 

[Exentryk]

It's a cigarette brand in Japan from the looks:

Mevius... Moebius... Xenogears remake?

Kain pls.

 

[Niosai]

Next-Gen console Dissidia, obviously....

But realistically, probably a mobile title.

 

[Philippo]

Mevius? Is it even a word?
FFXV DEMO 2 CONFIRMED.

 

[Nightengale]

It's a cigarette brand in Japan from the looks.

I don't think this has anything to do with the cigarette brand though ( people may know it better as Mild Seven ), because that would imply SE partially trademarking a brand name that belongs to another company.

 

[Perfo]

Sounds like the name of an iOS title to me...

 

[zeromcd73]

Time to charge the phone.

 

[minty_jpg]

What does "Mevius" even mean?

Maybe a revisiting of FF1 in HD/Lumious?

 

[ComputerMKII]

More stupid pseudo-latin from Squarenix?

 

[Exentryk]

It's probably an alternate name for FFXV. Coz you can smoke while playing it, you know, since you just hold a button.

Spoiler

I'll see myself out.

 

[Kain]

Kain pls.

Yeah I still have yet to find a reaaaally sarcastic smiley lol

 

[Thoraxes]

Man, Noctis needs to stop hanging out with the wrong crowd.

 

[Ghost Slayer]

Dissidia sequel

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

FFXV-2

 

[Nightengale]

I've always imagined whoever's in charge of naming schemes at SE to basically be the Latin version of this guy.

 

[minty_jpg]

Dissidia sequel

Yes please, on PS4/X1

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Smell like Lightning with Mevius One.

 

[TheContact]

please be disappointed

probably ios

 

[ConceptX]

I have zero ideas other than it "sounds" like a mobile title.

Though it could be a product of that new studio they were setting up, which was for consoles specifically...

What is with this new trend of putting things before Final Fantasy in the title.

 

[Dunan]

The Japanese "Mevius" cigarette is the new name for the venerable "Mild Seven" brand.

Seven. Believe, FF7 remake, believe.

An FFVII demake featuring the good sprite work by that artist who brought us FFV and FFVI on mobile.

Square Enix's random name generator hard at work again, eh?

 

[Hexa]

Millennium Edition of Final Fantasy VI for US confirmed.

 

[Snaku]

Square-Enix isn't simply milking a cow anymore -- they're bear farming.
MAKE IT STAHP~~

Millennium Edition of Final Fantasy VI for US confirmed.

I was going to say something exactly like that lol.

 

[genjiZERO]

Jesus, this fake Latin nonsense is too gimmicky. They need to think less about making baroque sounding words and more about making games.

 

[kick51]

i like the fake latin. it properly reflects the deep stories and serious faces of all the characters in the final fantasy triumverustallis. *puts hand on chest while looking down*

 

[SoundLad]

Jesus, this fake Latin nonsense is too gimmicky. They need to think less about making baroque sounding words and more about making games.

^ this
It sounds really pretentious.

 

[SporeCrawler]

Jesus, this fake Latin nonsense is too gimmicky. They need to think less about making baroque sounding words and more about making games.

apparently they had to change the name from mild seven to mevius because mild seven was suggesting the cigs are mild.

 

[Velcro Fly]

i always just assume mobile until I hear otherwise. That way my hopes are never up so when the disappointment hits it's easier to take.

 

[Scrooge McDuck]

Jesus, this fake Latin nonsense is too gimmicky. They need to think less about making baroque sounding words and more about making games.

The names being what they are is most likely because they don't spend time thinking about it instead of the other way around.
