December 18, 2006 - Hot on the heels of confirmation earlier this week of a port of the original Final Fantasy Tactics for the PSP, Square Enix announced today that the Nintendo DS will be getting an original entry in the series all to itself.

IGN reported last week on Final Fantasy Tactics A2 Fuuketsu no Guurimore, a mysterious title that debuted alongside the PSP port of FFT in the latest issue of Japan's Jump magazine. This is the new DS title in question.

Japanese media outlets are reporting that, as the A2 in the name might have suggested, this new game is being developed as a sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, the Game Boy Advance entry in the series. Details beyond this were not revealed in today's announcement.

While we don't have any screenshots, we do have a logo. But not of the new Final Fantasy Tactics games. Instead, the logo Square Enix passed around to the press today is of the Ivalice Alliance project, which encompasses Final Fantasy XII Revnant Wings for the DS and the two Final Fantasy Tactics projects. The company has stated that it has multiple teams working on games for this new initiative. These games encompass a variety of genres and are for a variety of platforms.

This reminds me of all the FF7 crap that they just pushed out a little while ago. These look a little promising though.

The zodiac logo is awesome. I hope this uses the touchscreen in some fun way besides the usual stuff.

Im not a huge FFT fan, but I do enjoy them somewhat. I only played the GBA FFT game.

They're going to suck. Yasumi Matsuno isn't doing any of them, and he's the one who has done all of the Ivalice games. I don't have any faith in Revenant Wings and just a little in Tactics.


NOT TO BE NEGATIVE ^----------------------------------^

I got sick of FFTA after a while, but since this is a sequel or w/e I guess I can get through all the story missions.

I might actually preorder this game, and I never preorder.
