Looks like SquareEnix is trying to wean off console games after all.
Final Fantasy XI : Mobile Version Coming, Console Versions to Close
I can't imagine there being many MMORPG players accessing the games through consoles to begin with. The genre itself really lends to the flexibility that PCs have over console in terms of game control and ease of use. So for them to halt console support for their MMORPGs makes sense.
However, the move to adapt the game for the mobile market is rather odd. Well, not so much given that the Japanese gaming market as a whole is transitioning more towards mobile gaming. But to put the MMORPG experience into a mobile phone which is just as limiting as video game consoles is rather peculiar.

Update XXII
Salutations, summoners!
It's been a long while since I last did a blog update and I apologize for that. Final Fantasy news have been rather stark so there hasn't been much to discuss.
But now there's some stuff to talk about so let's get right to it!
Final Fantasy XV is FINALLY coming out after 10 years of waiting. Release date is slated for September of this year so break out your PS4!
In addition, there's also a Final Fantasy XV companion anime known as Brotherhood: Final Fantasy XV. It consists of 5 episodes that serve as the prequel to the game. The first episode came out on March 30, 2016 and is expected to finish in September in tim
Update XX
Well, much like how updates on Final Fantasy XV has been lacking, so has there been a lack of updates for this group as a whole.
This group is still alive and kicking (since you guys are the ones who help to keep it alive by continuing to submit art), but due to the ever-changing landscape of deviantART as a whole (seriously, what's up with that new logo?) I find it harder and harder to want to log in to the site on a regular basis. Despite all that, you guys and I are still here so that's something, ne?

Update XIX
After 9 long years of waiting since the initial announcement of Final Fantasy VERSUS XIII, the renamed Final Fantasy XV is finally coming out in 2015 for the Playstation 4 and XBox One.

Not too sure about the driving aspect, as it bring back stinging memories of Final Fantasy VIII with the fuel-dependent car that I don't think any player bothered to use. With all those years in on and off development, this game had better be good. At least it looks good, which you can always depend on SquareEnix to do nowadays since they're so focused on that aspect of their newer games.

Update XVIII
Final Fantasy XIV (version 2) is officially released and in full swing. Sadly, Square didn't learn anything from their previous dealing with the MMORPG genre (Final Fantasy XI) and released FFXIV as a full subscription game with absolutely no free trial for people on the fence about subscribing.

Guess we'll be waiting another decade or so before FFXIV offers a free trial of its own, huh? Doesn't look like I'm missing out on too much since I hear that the game plays like World of Warcraft but with a little less content. Well, the game has been out for a few months so I guess I'll wait and see if it gets better
