Square Enix Legend World’s Crossovers Galore

Friday, March 15th, 2013

For Square Enix Members in Japan, Square Enix has cooked up a new browser game features and amalgam of franchise crossovers — including Final Fantasy. In the above trailer you can see characters, outfits, and monsters from Bravely Default: Flying Fairy, Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers, and Final Fantasy Type-0 to name a few.

This isn’t limited to Final Fantasy, as Deus Ex: Human Revolution‘s Adam Jensen (who probably didn’t ask for this) makes a stealthy cameo — as well as the King of Hell from Army Corps of Hell. The browser game pits players against various monsters to level up their abilities and includes many of the social game gimmicks seen in titles like Bravely Default: Praying Brage and the upcoming Kingdom Hearts χ[chi].

Square Enix Legend World is currently announced for Japan and a Members account is required to play.

Today’s submission comes from YouTube user ChrisBlueStone with a performance of “Moving Clouds On The River’s Surface” by Kumi Tanioka. The song appears in 2003′s Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, for the Nintendo Gamecube.

The game featured support for four players and could be linked to a Gameboy Advance handheld to give each player an important role within the party. Nearly ten years after its initial release, what are your fondest memories looking back on the game — whether you played it alone or with your friends?

Kawazu busy with a new RPG

When you think of Final Fantasy veterans, it’s easy to consider Hironobu Sakaguchi, Yoshitaka Amano, or Nobuo Uematsu. One overlooked name is Akitoshi Kawazu, the man behind the SaGa series and Crystal Chronicles series. Ever since his role as game designer in Final Fantasy I and II, he’s had a direct influence on many of Square-Enix’s most acclaimed RPGs. His most recent bed of work includes Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers and filling in the director’s seat of Final Fantasy XII with Yoichi Wada when Yasumi Matsuno left the project.

And now it seems he’s busy with a new RPG, as he told Nintendo Power just recently. Could this perhaps be a new SaGa game (as hinted by Square-Enix) or a new Crystal Chronicles game or something new entirely?
