Square Enix trademarks Ever Crisis, The First Soldier, and Shinra logo in Japan

Square Enix filed trademarks for "Ever Crisis" and "The First Soldier" on December 17, 2020 in Japan, as well as the Shinra Electric Power Company logo on December 22. All three trademarks were just…

We've just had the FFVII Remake, and other parts are coming, now there's a possibility we are getting spin offs

...sigh

Crysis Core on PSP was fantastic, and I'd love to see that redone on next-gen systems. It's pretty clear that FF7 is one of the more loved storylines that they created and they know that, so why not capitalize on that? They are running a business after all.

-Foxtrot1236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

They have been capitalizing on that though for years, other FF games deserve some love aswell you know, otherwise it's just going to feel like we're being suffocated. If you are making a remake of VII then your spin off could be other FF titles to keep things fresh so when FFVII Part II comes out you won't end up feeling sick of the VII Universe.

Least give us a prequel / sequel / animated film / remake of something FFVI, VIII or IX related

Over the many years FFVII has had...

Before Crises
Dirge of Cerberus
Crises Core
G-Bike

Final Fantasy VII: On the Way to a Smile novel

Advent Children Film
Last Order OVA Series

A full blown remake spread out over 3-4 parts

Hell I'd take a mobile Triple Triad game at this point

Godmars2901236d ago

Possibly?

You're talking about Square Enix, you know that, right?

Of course they were going to make spin offs.

Though I expect Ever Crisis to be a Crisis Core "remake" since they never re-release that.

CrimsonWing691236d ago (Edited 1236d ago )

Don’t get your panties in a bunch.

This sounds more like it’ll be a Crisis Core Remaster. I doubt it’ll be a Remake or it could be a mobile game spin off. Hell, it could be a book or anime short. Who knows with Square?

To be fair the world of FF7 lends it to more opportunities for spin-offs than any of the other installments. Maybe you could do more with FF 15, but not sure many people would want that.

[SPOILERS FROM FFVII remake]
Any doubt that "Zack is still alive" change in FFVII remake was just a way to set up for spin offs?

Sirk7x1235d ago

I'm totally okay with that. Zack is the shit lol.

Magic_Spatula1235d ago

Watch it all be related to mobile games where they can get your money with gatcha mechanics and tons and tons of other microtransactions.

RPGer1235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

Forxrot you missed some of FFVII titles

FFVII (OG)
FFVII International
FFVII Before Crisis
FFVII Last Order OVA
FFVII Crisis Core
FFVII Advent Children
FFVII Dirge Of Cerberus
FFVII Bike
FFVII Advent Children Complete
FFVII On The Way to Smile OVA

(FFVII ports which are devide into 3 main categories: OG, Mobile and enhanced HD with official boasts.)

Lastly, we got FFVII Remake

Each titles are the best for what they are or at least one of best.

FFVII is one of the best FF and Square titles ever, one of the best PS1 games, one of best classics, one of best RPG, one best JRPG and one of the best stories that is coherent and well presented.

gold_drake1235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

geez mate, stop the bitching lol

we get it, you dont like 7 or the milking of it. but alot of people do, no need to be so bitter everytime this kind of news comes out haha.

RPGer1234d ago

7 is milked a lot maybe, but as a result the fun factor out of it is the best comparing to that boring XIII and lame Dissidia.

They should have ported Crisis Core to a console by now I love that game especially when the FF7 remake came out on the PS4 help build up that hype. Come on Square port it it would be day one for me this news has even peaked my interest.

FallenAngel19841235d ago

It’s a legal rights issue that they can’t rerelease the game thanks to Gackt

gold_drake1235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

its a damn shame isnt it? but i get it.
buut at the same time... why the hell did they choose one of the biggest pop stars at that time, to write, sing, act and give his face for not one BUT TWO DAMN GAMES. i mean come on.

SDuck1236d ago

Crisis Core's... well core story should be part of the remake! I need Price of Freedom to be as known and beloved as One Winged Angel!

Former Activision studio Toys for Bob partners with Xbox to publish its first game as an indie

Former Activision studio Toys for Bob partners with Xbox to publish its first game as an indie. This is something of a homecoming, as Microsoft owns Activision.

Very very early in development. Still, fantastic news!

Let´s GO!!!

Lightning772h ago

I guess.

How come they didnt either let them go or sell Tango and others to another publisher? Not saying Ubisoft, EA would be any better. (Capcome would of treated them right )

At least it wouldn't be MS of all ppl destroying them.

MS really should let go Tango go like they did TFB here.

darthv721h ago(Edited 1h ago)

one was under Bethesda (Tango) the other under Activision (TFB). Clearly each one handled the separations of their subordinates differently.

Obscure_Observer1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

"How come they didnt either let them go or sell Tango and others to another publisher? Not saying Ubisoft, EA would be any better. (Capcome would of treated them right )"

Perhaps because Zenimax and ABK handles such matters differently based on their own internal policies as "independent" publishers.

Whoever, chances are it´s simply because MS didn´t wanted Tango or Austin to be acquired by competitors and develop new bangers for them, giving MS a bad rep in a possible future. Which could also be the reason why they ensured an exclusive partnership with TFB and its new game, before anyone else.

Sad and disgusting. But it is what it is.

-Foxtrot3h ago

Manages to buy their freedom especially after all the shit Microsoft has been doing with its studios lately

...

Goes right back to them as partners.

Okaaaaaay...

darthv721h ago

Id venture a guess that TFB working directly with MS was a better outcome than working through Activision to get to MS.

Sciurus_vulgaris1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Xbox’s gaming division seems to still function as 3 semi-autonomous sub-divisions, Xbox Studios, Bethesda and ABK. The three main sub-divisions can seemingly shut down or build studios and set up partnerships independently. This would explain why Bethesda can recently shutdown studios, while ABK spins off one studio, while building a new one. Plus, Toys for Bob could be spun off by ABK, only to immediately re-partner with Microsoft.

i didnt even know there was a leak ha.

Relientk7710h ago

This is news to me. I had no idea the games from the State of Play got leaked.

Jin_Sakai2h ago

I seen the list posted and instantly got excited for Astro Bot. Everything else was meh.

CrimsonWing693h ago

I’m pretty sure leaks or not, by the end of the show people will still be disappointed. The only highlight for me was MH: Wilds… everything else was mid to forgettable. Hope them HaaS games you got lined up really work out for you, Sony. Everyone asking for Bloodborne Remake, Wolverine, and, uh, well other games like that could’ve made this epic. Instead we get Concord, some derivative Souls-like games, that were fine looking, and a Silent Hill 2 Remake with horrible character designs and janky combat animations… great.

rayford152h ago

I wasn’t disappointed it was a solid B

TOTSUKO16m ago

For a State of play it was actually alright. People are overshadowing it because they want to cancel Sony to high hell for Gaas which is not fair for the other devs who revealed great looking games that were just shown. I get it you don’t like gaas don’t buy it. If it sells well good for the people who had interest no big deal? If you are a PlayStation fan what’s wrong with PlayStation trying to cater every gamer? I don’t understand that smh

ravens521h ago

Where Winds Meet and Ballad of Antara both looked good. Not to mention Astro Bot. It was a decent show. For me personally it was a 7. I'm sure to some people it was actually really good cause they'd play all those games. 🤷🏽 Personal taste

MrNinosan12m ago

I wasn't dissapointed.
And no, everyone doesn't want a Bloodborne Remake. There is probably very few who's actually asking for it, but the ones who do are loud on internet.

CrimsonWing693m ago(Edited 3m ago)

Oh, my mistake. It’s definitely not one of the most requested games when it comes to remakes with news stories talking about it 🙄

Silly me. It’s just a very few that are actually wanting it…
