Final Fantasy Versus XIII Isn't Even in Full Production

So what's new with Final Fantasy Versus XIII? Nothing really! I mean, hell, we haven't heard anything about it since it got showcased at Square Enix's "1st Production Party Premiere Event" all the way back in January. Well besides the whole tease that we got from Tetsuya Nomura in Famitsu a few days ago about a supposed Kingdom Hearts III, Nomura had shed some light about the very long awaited Versus XIII. What we got was the fact that it still isn't even in full production...wait, what?

Courtesy of Andriasang, who did the translation from this interview, here's what Nomura had said.

"Since we’re still taking on so many new development challenges, the team is still made up of the core members. Right now, we’re making preparations to go into full production."

We haven't seen anything since the Premeire Party event, as previously stated, but here's the trailer we did get to see. Some drama here and there, but about halfway through is when the gameplay really kicks in. Very reminiscent to Kingdom Heart's, no?

All that all of us really can do is wait, much like any other anticipated Square Enix title.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII's New Leaked Trailer

Like most Final Fantasy games that are in development, they're always, what I like to call "confidentail" beacuse of the way Square-Enix handles their announcements and unveilings to the press, but luckily there are attendees who are there to show us who aren't there to spill the beans at the "1st Production Party Premiere Event."

One of which is the new trailer for the long-awaited Final Fantasy Versus XIII, which is headed by Testuya Nomura who's mostly well known for being the character designer for most of the Final Fantasy franchise, the director of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, and producer of the Kingdom Hearts series.

Let the trailer speak for itself.

Given our first look, everything that is seen is in real-time. Just like every single Square-Enix product, it looks spectacular and extremely stunning to see. Judging from the gameplay, it looks and plays exactly like Kingdom Hearts, not that it's a bad thing.

Even though the trailer isn't in English (and hopefully will be subtitled by fans), you can tell that this installment will have a much darker tone and serious tone.

No release date has been set for Final Fantasy Versus XIII still and is still considered a Playstation 3 exclusive.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII was originally revealed at DKΣ3713 party in August 2008
