KH always has a big presence at Jump Festa (when a new game is coming) so not surprising that 2.8 will be there. And I wasn't expecting III to be.

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Looks like this event is on the 19th and 20th?
http://www.jp.square-enix.com/jf16/info/

I guess it makes sense why they would leave those titles out for now so it's not totally unexpected, I think. Focus on what's coming out in the immediate portions of 2016, and save the FFXV blowout so it can begin with the release date announcement in March, and then KHIII info will come later. And they probably don't want attention from III to eat 2.8's lunch.

Nier and DQXI aren't on there either and those are almost definitely second-half-of-the-year releases IMO.

Happy to see World of FF being featured! Really looking forward to that.

 

[threelights]

No NieR is a bigger offense. >.>


Ah well, WoFF, SO5, Setsuna and KH2.8 will be there. Hopefully they all get new footage.

 

[glassgannon]

why would they do an atr close to jump festa but not during it....
weird

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

I was thinking we'd get some Kingdom Hearts III stuff, but I guess not (barring a surprise).

At the very least, I'm looking forward to seeing more of Setsuna and World of Final Fantasy.

They already confirmed at PGW that next time we hear about NieR would be Spring 2016.

Can you guess which region this game is being developed for?

They already confirmed at PGW that next time we hear about NieR would be Spring 2016.

That would point to either PAX East or E3 again, if it's at an event.

FFVIIR/KHIII combo at PSX believe.

Huh, I missed it =P

Oh well, too bad.

 

[Soriku]

Pls Square Enix I need more of that glorious Nier 2 gameplay.

Also when are we expecting FF7 info to release?

 

[Boke1879]

isn't SE waiting until March to really start info dumping on FFXV? Kinda makes sense they'd miss this.

It's official then, in the final release 2B will be replaced by a big, buff, manly robot.

/s

 

[Dark_castle]

No FFVII remake, DQXI, no FFXV, no KH3, no Nier Automata. Fuck.

At least there're SO5, World of FF and Setsuna.

What happen to the Saga game on Vita?

 

[Ray Down]

No surprise with the March event for XV

No surprise with KH3 for me expected it.

PSX most likely, maybe the VGAs

Well, they said they since they didn't reveal anything at Japan, they want to next reveal at Japan. There is no event in spring so they might do their own thing or something..

[jiggle]

Can't wait to see ff7

 

[glassgannon]

but there is an atr pending for this year, so no not nearly as much.

I remember them saying that they would reveal some FF7 Remake info this Winter. But, I guess that would be after the Jump Festa?

Edit. Looks like it could be before?

 

[Boke1879]

No surprise with the March event for XV

No surprise with KH3 for me expected it.

Yea I think Nomura said Winter in regards to FF7 remake. That could be in January though for all we know.

Although it would be cool if we got something at PSX.

 

[mrmickfran]

I thought they said that we were getting FF7R news in December?

 

[raven777]

Star Ocean 5 and World of Final Fantasy will have special stage event.

 

[Boke1879]

but there is an atr pending for this year, so no not nearly as much.

Who knows. Whatever info they do share won't be meaningful anyway.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Why would Nier be shown off at an event associated with a popular kids magazine? It's the completely wrong demo for that game.

On that note, is Star Ocean 5 actually appropriate for children this go around?

Well, I guess Star Ocean 4 technically would fit with the 15 year old of that spectrum at least.

[raven777]

They said Winter, not December if I remember correctly. Usually when japan says winter, it stretches to February next year I think?

Anyways, we have PSX at December, so that's likely place.

I really hope so. :3 As much as I'd like to see proper gameplay, even just having the title would be nice.

 

[jiggle]

Year of the dreams shall end with chrono trigger 2 on stage

 

[Death Penalty]

Strange, I thought there were rumblings of XV being shown at an upcoming Japanese event. I would have figured it was Jump Festa for sure since Tabata mentioned end of this year or beginning of next.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Still a good lineup of games. So FFVIIR at PSX or Jump Festa?

Spoiler

I'm thinking (hoping) PSX

 

[raven777]

I really hope so. :3 As much as I'd like to see proper gameplay, even just having the title would be nice.

Yea Nomura said we will at least get the title.

I honestly don't expect much else.

Hey, I grew up with Drakengard and I turned out fine!

Spoiler

Rip and tear

But yeah, I guess so...

 

[themagicalkitsune]

Aw yeah playable Joker 3.

 

[Yabberwocky]

FFXII.

Someday.

Ah, well, looking forward to seeing more of KH 2.8.

 

[Mortemis]

Unless they decide to show that extended e3 trailer at PSX, I wouldn't expect anything on KH III until E3 (hell, who knows, they might skip E3 too). Maybe Nomura will talk more about the game in interviews, but that's the most I see.

 

[raven777]

Stage schedule, if I may: http://gematsu.com/2015/11/square-enix-announces-jump-festa-2016-lineup

considering that Saturday's stream starts on 10:30 and Sunday's stream starts on 13:00, there could be unannounced stream on Sunday before 13:00?

 

[Wagram]

Once that March date hits they'll market XV so much you'll be sick of it and in the process spoil half the story for you.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Star Ocean 5 and World of FF have my interest anyway, I don't need FFXV or KH3.

 

[Jeels]

Does jump fest have an arcade presense? Surprised there's no Dissidia considering it just came out.

 

[Nimby]

No Saga again either? I really would like to actually see the actual game please.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Nothing of particular interest to me.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Makes sense they wouldn't be there, they're probably just featuring 2016 games.

 

[I-hate-u]

That's a lot of DQ.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Makes sense they wouldn't be there, they're probably just featuring 2016 games.

I dunno if you're joking, but FFXV is a 2016 game.

 

[like.a.ser]

Mmm, so much Dragon Quest. Definitely looking forward to seeing more of Builders

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

What goods will they be selling?

 

[TDLink]

I dunno if you're joking, but FFXV is a 2016 game.

lol

 

[Exentryk]

Star Ocean 5
World of Final Fantasy
Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8
Ikenie to Yuki no Setsuna

Am buying these anyway, so don't really need to see any more. Just give me some western release dates.

 

[SolidSnakex]

14:20 – World of Final Fantasy Special Stage – Featuring MC Hideo Ishikawa, voice actors Sora Amamiya and Ayana Taketatsu, and director Hiroki Chiba.

Finally! Hopefully we finally see some raw gameplay of this. Everything about it sounds fantastic.

Disappointed by the lack of a Setsuna stage. But hopefully Square starts doing a livestream for it like they do with Star Ocean V and DQB.
