Agito's a better name if they only intend to do one of them, which wouldn't surprise me.

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

The game is already out in Japan as Final Fantasy Type-0. Why would they file for a new trademark with a different name?

Probably because they felt that Type O is a difficult name to sell a game... HAHAHA I'm sorry, I forgot is Square...

Spoiler

But yeah, this... that new managament

 

[CrimsonCrescendo]

There's a large difference between a game that never happened (chrono break) and a game that is already out in Japan and only needs to be localized or even - a wild guess - ported to HD.

SE trademarking this name probably means they are or started doing something about its localization.

Why name it Agito? They already renamed it Type 0, why name it back to a name they already dropped?

 

[truly101]

"-crisis core: ff7 and agito HD release for PS3 coming soon"

Yeah, no.

If they did it, it would be on the same disc. Not a reach in my opinion. They don't have much else to offer console-wise except HD ports as it is anyway.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Localization? Games change names all the time overseas. You still have to protect your property.

Do companies file trademarks for American/European names in Japan? I don't know.

Why Bravely Default?

It's published by Nintendo.

It's not a new name, the game was originally called

Final Fantasy Agito XIII

I know what it was called.

 

[sublimit]

iOS release of Type-O ?

 

[Zomba13]

Of course this is the smart phone trading card game with microtransactions based on the Final Fantasy franchise.

 

[Whompa]

Lucky guess. :x

that would be insane.

 

[levitan]

Facebook game

Nailed it. Totally.

 

[DieH@rd]

Nailed it. Totally.

Sadly.... yes. I really dont expect anything good to come from SE in forseable time. Their track record was abysmal ever since they released Crisis Core and FF13 [IMO].

 

[dramatis]

It's not a new name, the game was originally called

Final Fantasy Agito XIII

Except the trademark is for 'Agito' alone. Wording for trademarks is serious business. Chances are, they're dropping the idea of franchising Type-0 and are just doing a Vita port.

Fabula Nova Crystallis has more or less become Fabula Nova Lightning now.

 

[Stevetopsy]

Wasn't Type-0 originally titled Final Fantasy Agito XIII? This whole "fabula nova crystallis" thing has been a complete clusterfuck.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Probably because they felt that Type O is a difficult name to sell a game... HAHAHA I'm sorry, I forgot is Square...

Type-0 was always way too safe. No alliterations, no Greek characters, no Latin words...

 

[raven777]

what I want? HD version of Type-0 on Vita.

what I will get? iOS F2P game using Type-0 world.

Yeah, pretty much. If there was a Type-1, we'd know by now, and I'd imagine Sony have been courting Type-0 for Vita since it launched. It makes sense to cave to that if SE have decided to call off the sub-franchise anyway.

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Why name it Agito? They already renamed it Type 0, why name it back to a name they already dropped?

If is a Vita overseas release (fuck, even a IOS one) they probably want to sell it in Japan as a International Special Rerelease or something. Maybe is like a sort of rebranding as A Real Reborn more or less tries to do with FFXIV.

 

[cafemomo]

This is gonna be another iOS title

Spoiler

;_;

 

[Perkel]

So it is what this Vita sony guy told us on twitter.

- OMG game
- Third party

Since it is not Type-0 but Agito it is no longer a port :trollface"

 

[KmA]

SE needs to stop playing with my emotions. I swear, if this is a smartphone game, I will take the next iPhone I see and chuck it against the wall.

 

[Canis lupus]

OMG pls be Type-0 for da West.

 

[Exentryk]

Lucky guess. :x

some e3 spoilers for SE, enjoy~

-final fantasy 15 announcement nextgen game (both PS4 and Xb1), cg trailer looks like ff4 setting in hd and main character is like agni's philosophy girl but setting is completely different. gives 2014 release. SE live stream will detail: party members can be recruited online but it's an offline game (You play commander of an army and recruit soldiers), looks open world with combat like ff12/xenoblade, quest givers with ! above their heads so maybe MMO-inspired.

-kingdom hearts teaser for ps4 at sony conference, no gameplay or subtitle just secret ending esque video

-lightning returns showcase at e3, coming this year, new trailer

-final fantasy versus (no 13) trailer and 2014 release date, sony japan studio in trailer, for ps3

-crisis core: ff7 and agito HD release for PS3 coming soon (no date)

-last mission ffx-2 coming as $20 dlc to ffxHD in north america/europe

-english bravely default trailer, coming 2014

-blood mask, DMC esque action RPG for vita and ps3 coming 2014

Interesting.

 

[M.D]

Where is Kagari when you need her

 

[Wolves Evolve]

Scary part of those rumours is Square releasing three PS3 games the year PS4 comes out.

 

[CrimsonCrescendo]

Wasn't Type-0 originally titled Final Fantasy Agito XIII? This whole "fabula nova crystallis" thing has been a complete clusterfuck.

[The Praiseworthy]

I've been burned many times over the years from SE... so I won't be excited and won't get my hopes up at all.

I won't even expect ANYTHING from theme.

I've learned my lesson so well.

 

[shaowebb]

Only versions of Agito I care about are the Kamen Rider versions in this picture.

 

[Beetleking11]

Ios or 3Ds port.

 

[Toth]

I still think ts an IoS port of the game with whatever old cellphone battle system they had before it was upgraded to PSP.

But I hope it is coming here, that's all

Looks like we are in the same boat. I have been disappointed by S-E so many times over the years that I have no faith in them at all...

 

[Cheebo]

Vita is basically a dead platform. Square-Enix isn't going to waste money on a big original project for it. Whatever it is it is probably either PS3/PS4 or iOS most likely.

 

[nelsonroyale]

Interesting.

Got an itch on my chin...

They don't sound particularly ligitimate to me to be honest.

 

[Midou]

E3 'spoilers' sound like complete crock. I don't believe it remotely.

 

[SeZMehK]

Actually this might be what the vita needs.

[AGITΩ]

Clearly this is a vastly superior game about humans evolving beyond the scope of their creator.

 

[TheContact]

It's a Vita game I hope

FF type-0 on the PSP was originally called Final Fantasy Agito XIII, said it was changed because "agito" somewhat meaning "to put in motion" had nothing to do with the game, so if they chose Agito this time it should have something to with the game

I think the opposite. Capcom became kings of PSP because they took the spot of 'system seller' with Monster Hunter. Right now they're on Nintendo consoles, so I think other companies have the chance to move in and make the next big thing, if these companies are willing to stop making MH clones.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

PS3/PSV is the best option here.

[Nibel]

Fucking FINALLY

My PSV is starving for this

Story-wise, "Agito" is actually EXTREMELY important.
Aside from the mention in the intro/former title, I can't explain further, due to massive spoilers.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Happy day. SE may redeem itself after all. It'll take a few more fulfilled promises for that to happen though

 

[raven777]

IF it ever comes to Vita, there is no way it will be only for Vita game. It will be PS3/Vita like FFXHD

 

[LiK]

Please be disappointed.

 

[fluffydelusions]

IF it ever comes to Vita, there is no way it will be only for Vita game. It will be PS3/Vita like FFXHD

When is this even coming out?

 

[Impeccable]

Square is coming back.

 

[chaosblade]

PS3 remaster would be awesome. Vita would also be acceptable.

Expectations are low though, this is SE.

 

[Phatcorns]

Was FF Type-0 That amazing that we should be salivating over this?

 

[Cheddahz]

Please be a Vita release announcement, please....

 

[raven777]

When is this even coming out?

this year. I assume it will be end of the year.
