With one Star Ocean countdown (http://home.eyesonff.com/content/2146-countdown-star-ocean-sequel.html) site currently active, Square Enix are at it again, launching another teaser site - this time for Theatrhythm. The site (http://www.jp.square-enix.com/theatrhythm/) features four rows with command prompts sweeping through them, mirroring the control scheme from the game. The words "Coming Soon" lurk down the bottom.
While there's no saying just what could be on the horizon, the simple fact remains that Theatrhythm and its DLC negate any real need for a sequel. That kind of news would be a bigger cash grab than a Final Fantasy VII remake. So if it isn't a sequel, what else could they possibly be waiting to tell us?
Odds are it's news of a port to mobile devices. The touch screens on smart phones and tablets are perfect for the rhythm game, and it would really open up a wider market. With some very favourable first experiences (http://home.eyesonff.com/content/2147-theatrhythm-final-fantasy-my-first-thoughts.html) from Eyes on Final Fantasy member Formalhaut, this news might just give non-DS owners a chance to try it for themselves. We'll keep you updated as things progress!
