What are Square Enix working on? We'll find out soon enough, as the publisher confirmed that they're going to announce the game next month. All we know now is that an announcement is coming in December, it's a console title, and it's an RPG.
"Actually, right now, we're working on a new RPG specifically for consoles and it isn't a remake," company president Yosuke Matsuda told Famitsu (with quotes via Gematsu). "We'll start talking about it more in December and go from there."
Matsuda later added: "Just so we're clear, we also still have a lot of titles in the pipeline for not just consoles, but also smartphones and PCs, and this includes games that our overseas studios are working on. I can't talk about what platform those other titles are going to be on yet, whether they'll be on console or mobile, but I believe we should have a wide variety of games to announce after the new year arrives.
"These are projects that began after I assumed the role of president at Square Enix. We're going to have a lot to show for both Japan and overseas markets."
There's plenty of opportunities for an announcement, with both The Game Awards and Sony's PlayStation Experience set for next month. More details when we have them.
