Square Enix Developing Vita RPG |
Listed in: News Tags: Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Square Enix, Unity engine, vita rpg
Fresh from the rumor mill: Square Enix is developing an action-RPG title for the PS3 and PS Vita – one that involves airships. The story leaked earlier today when a couple of interesting job listings turned up for the company’s 1st Production Department – the section of Square Enix that works on Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts titles.
One of the listings describes the need for a “planner” that can design a player growth system and ability properties. Another requests someone that can create the “play elements” for an airship that navigates over a large world map. The genre is confirmed as “action-RPG,” and the listed hardware is Vita and PS3.
One interesting point in the listings page is the inclusion of the Unity engine. Square Enix is known for building their game engines from scratch, but a turn to Unity indicates they’re becoming increasingly accepting of third party solutions.
It’s worth noting that the listings do not specifically say they are for Square Enix positions, only that they are in reference to a game being developed by Square Enix’s 1st Production Department. The company could be outsourcing some tasks to a smaller developer or individuals, or they could be hiring new employees.
Either way, it’s safe to say whatever project is in development will be in development for some time to come.
What Square Enix game would you hope to see on Vita?

-People have given Square bad feedback on them putting FF on Xbox.
-Final Fantasy X is confirmed for PS3/PSV
-Square enix, said just afew days ago, Final Fantasy XV, When they go to it, Will very Much be a Action RPG
-We know they found out people want the traditional style Final Fantasy things like, World Map & Airships etc.
-Possible it could be Kingdom Hearts 3, seeing Sony has had both or the original story games, it only makes sense sony has it. also would explain why they would use someone elses engine, because Kingdom Hearts isn't a very Detailed game, they just need character models to be upgraded and new textures mainly.
-Something entirely new, could be likely because the already got Lord of the apocalypse and that games title was a rip straight from FF style.
but we'll see
