I hope it isn't true. And if it's even remotely true, I hope it's getting renamed to FF XV.

Well, the first footage of the game dates back to 2006 correct, but Nomura had stated that development had only fully started in 2010 so it's only been 2 years actually.  (Final Fantasy XIII was previously being developped for PS2, but since the PS3 had been announced SE decided they would carry it over to the new gen console. Thus, Final Fantasy XIII had actually been in development for, what, six years? So Versus XIII is well in the norm...

Final Fantasy games tend to take a long time to come out anyways and the official site is still up. If they would have cancelled development it would no longer be accessible.


Actually, the game has entered full development stage in 2011, sometime between July and Sep.

Not even alittle shocking. Oh and I highly doubt it will be renamed. Agni prophecy most likely is connected to 15

hmm...i just cant believe this...i dont think that 200+ people would work for 5-6 years and then someone says "okay guys...lets screw this"...

IF this is true this would maybe be the biggest disappointment in my whole gaming life...

The game was looking spectacular, with open-ended scenarios; active combat, great looking characters, what looks to be an interesting story (the protagonist was really important), dark themed as FFVII - FFVIII; no girly looking dudes, no manly acting girls.

This is so disappointing. It looks like SE indeed hates Tetsuya Nomura, he should just resign and talk with Sony, I bet they would hire him in no time, or at least they would do a project with him (keiji Inafune, Seth Kilian).

Seriously, tell me how many renowned developers that left the company that made them famous and ended up create something good again?I am honestly tired of seeing talent beeing lost. Sega without Yu suzuki and Yuji Naka, that left to create nothing relevant. Shinji mikami, Inafune, etc.

Even Sakaguichi, wich was the only one that managed to create something so,so doesnt make games as big as FF7 or 9.

I really prefer that they stay put so we can get more of the goodness that we know they can make. The games they can make without the support of the big company that saw them grow really arent anywhere near as good. Nomura wouldnt be anything without the KH brand. Not even Sony would let him develop a game like Versus 13 without the final fantasy brand backing him up.
