No Final Fantasy XIII
Fans of the Final Fantasy were really enthusiasm about the new release of the next version of the game.
Now the Square Enix team announced that this version will be delayed until at least the middle of 2008 reports ITWire.
At least April 2008 before we are likely to see Final Fantasy XIII, those are the words of Square Enix head honcho Yoichi Wada recently said at a fiscal meeting discussing the company's fiscal results.
The ever increasingly titled Final Fantasy series is proving lucrative for the developer with revenue up 31.3% (to 163.4 billion yen) for the year ending March 31 2007. Similarly operating profit topped out at 25.9 billion yen up from 15.47 billion the previous year.
Unfortunately for fans, it seems that all this yen counting has interfered with the creative process with Square Enix head honcho Yoichi Wada announcing that the development of FFXIII will need a bit more coding time; "It will still take a bit more time. At the very least, [a release] this fiscal year is definitely out of the question."
But it will be nice to make the Final Fantasy transition to the next-generation console world of the PS3.
