Square Enix Preparing Several Titles for Xbox Live Arcade

Jan. 26th, 2009 4:44 pm

Square Enix has announced its plans to port Crystal Defenders to consoles, including the WiiWare, Xbox Live Arcade and PSN versions. Crystal Defenders is a defensive strategy game in which players deploy popular jobs from Final Fantasy Tactics A2, such as Black Mages and Soldiers, to fend off encroaching enemy hordes and prevent them from stealing their party's crystals.


A second title Square Enix plans to release soon on the Xbox Live Marketplace is an Xbox Live Arcade port of Yosumin, a Nintendo DS puzzle video game.

Furthermore, the publisher has promised these two games are just the first of a "steady stream" of XBLA titles it plans to release in the coming months.

Sounds good, I already have four Arcade games... and Halo CE!



Tease.

Here's hoping for an Einhander port.

Will buy any Square-Enix RPGs on XBLA.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Well, I certainly don't care for those arcade games. Looks like S-E needs those funds for FFXIII. That game may best GTA IV in cost when all is said and done.

You may have something there. With FF's already costing close to 60M to make its only doubled when the game becomes A Multiplat

And yet, I fear the game will sell half of what GTA IV sold.

Anyway, I hope those xbla games are good.
