Square Enix to Announce Release Dates of "Major" Games Between April & E3; Welcomes Nintendo Switch

Square Enix teases release dates announcements coming before E3 2018, welcomes the release of the Nintendo Switch and more.

I don't ask for much, Squeenix.
Just get the Mana remake and Mana collection properly localized and released in the states on Switch, and anything else you do after that, I probably won't have any complaint about.
Though I'd be happy with a port of Kingdom Hearts 3, even if it comes out later, I'm not holding my breath...
But if you really want to catch me off-guard, announce a Chrono Trigger remake for Switch.

Or even more surprising, a port/remake of Terranigma.
Now THAT would blow my mind.

[chrisx]

Didn't play the original FF7. Hope a release date for the remake is announced

[Cyb3r]

Best FF game ever made IMO

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

I know it was part of the story, but I can't get over the fact that there was no way of saving Aerith.
That one moment, whereas most people loved it for the drama, I hated it because it meant a character I had just begun to like was suddenly taken away...

I need to get out there and play the rest of the FF series at some point, or at the least watch their stories.
So far the closest I've come to playing a FF game all the way through, is when I played through both Bravely Default and Bravely Second.XD

Chill with the spoils wonder,the man said he hasn’t played it yet...the fuck?anyways ff9 all day

[RpgSama]

@wonderfulmonkeyman

WTF DUDE!!! Chrisx just told us that he's never played FFVII and you just come out with the biggest spoiler in the game, what is wrong with you?!

What's so hard to say it's got elements of a surveillance state, ultra militarism, megacorporations, ecology, and idealism? No need to spoil the game here at all. There's also the more anime-esque things like humor, the dark main character, style, and amazing music. It's an awesome blend of cultures, based on societal issues and great blend of realism and fantasy.

[Ol_Boy]

Everyone getting mad at wonderfulmonkeyman but in his defense the game was released 20 years ago. Spoilers are nearly impossible to avoid now.

[Segata]

That's VI and IX. 7 isn't even the best FF on its native platform.

[FinalFantasyFanatic]

I never got upset over her death because I thought she was going to come back at some point, she never bloody came back...

[ninsigma]

Fantastic game. Worth playing the original too.

[Pantz]

You should play the original. The remake might be quite a different game.

[Elda]

They have it on the PS4 enhanced.

[Hardiman]

I never played it either which is strange but I must sau I'm looking forward to the remake!

[Segata]

Have you to be joking? At this point, it's about as much a spoiler as Darth Vader is Lukes dad. People who don't play the game or seen Star Wars even know that. It's impossible to not know about Aerith's death after 20 years. Guess what King Kong dies at the end and Shiek is Zelda!

[raWfodog]

Darth Vader is Luke's dad?!? I only got about halfway through Empire Strikes Back, been meaning to catch up. That's wild, man. What's next, Leia is Luke's sister?? Now that would be crazy :)

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Switch greatness + PS4 greatness + PC greatness = total sasifaction.

[Razzer]

^^gets it^^

[_-EDMIX-_]

Lol same.

Dat beast set up.

PC PlayStation Home console Nintendo portable.

I've been running that setup for years now with no fail.

[PhoenixUp]

Hopefully get a release date for Kingdom Hearts 3

[MrJay]

Final Fantasy VII 2019?

[Omnislashver36]

If it's 2019 they might as well release it for PS5 tbh. I mean what's the hurt in waiting a few more months when they'll be able to have it running at 4K with twice the graphical detail? Or atleast release it for PS4 but update it for PS5 since we've been waiting so long.

[The 10th Rider]

There always a cross gen release possibility or it could release on PS4 a few months to a year later as a release title. That's what often happens.

[andrewsquall]

True, by the time they do FFVII-2 and FFVII-3 we will certainly already be in next gen. This should have started development in 2013 so the SECOND one would be releasing around now and the 3rd part in another year or 2 to round out the gen. Would have been even quicker to just cancel the time waster FFXV too.

[Vizigoth04]

So looks like a release date of anything Square-Enix related at PSX is out of the question. Maybe another trailer and gameplay to tie us over. I'm looking at you FF7-R and Kindom Hearts 3. It's your time now. Let's go.

[Asuka]

Yeah. There was a confirmed list of attendees for psx this year, and SE was not mentioned to attend... so I would expect nothing from them this year.

[Omnislashver36]

Yeah, sounds like we'll get the next trailer in springtime next year, or at E3.

[3-4-5]

New Chrono Trigger game....calling it.

[inxine]

well, if we believe the newest 4chan "leak" kh3 is coming out end of 2018 and FF7R is nowhere near ready to be showcased

[pietro1212]

Bravely Title on the Switch, please!

[Bleucrunch]

So let me get this straight, Square Enix needs to make a press release about when its going to release games that are coming out next year spring? Why???

[UltimateOwnage]

A Chrono Trigger remaster on Switch would be glorious.

[MADGameR]

One game is all I ask for you to give a release date for Square Enix. FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE!!!!!! I would love a Parasite Eve Remake and a Chrono Trigger Remake on PS4 or PS5 :D

[Segata]

Super Mario RPG 2. Chrono Trigger sequel or remake. The World Ends with You port and sequel. New IPs.
