Square Enix are still playing coy when it comes to succulent details regarding the much anticipated Final Fantasy Versus XIII. However, in a case of no news that's actually news - much ado about nothing may have reared it's head again. Speaking on a Square Enix radio program the designer Tetsuya Nomura was quizzed for updates on the predicted vaporware.
Coincidentally Versus XIII actually did turn into a vapor in the form of a perfume that got revealed a bit too early by Square Enix's shop, MD. (https://twitter.com/hidemi_mad_dog/status/303461006418509824)
Nomura explained that even within Square Enix itself news regarding Versus XIII is a "very sensitive issue" and very much on a need to know basis. "We've been silent for the past year but we've already picked a day to announce specific info. Bit by bit, we are in the process of getting ready for that."
Oh boy oh boy! Could this mean that actual digestible information is on the way? But wait, didn't they promise us as much last year? Around spring 2012 they seemed read to make a big announcement. Nomura went on to clarify "Last year we didn't announce anything about the game. To be honest, I talked about releasing new info, but wasn't able to, and I'd like to apologize for that."
It's okay, it's okay. We'll forgive you provided Versus XIII is the next best thing since sliced bread. It's not like the Final Fantasy community has an insatiable appetite or anything!
According to Nomura the big reveal didn't happen last year due to a "totally unrelated reason, there are circumstances in which that info cannot be released." I do wonder if Square Enix's PR department are former murder mystery writers with the amount of crypticness going on here. However, it seems this is not something the want to leave to speculation as Nomura added "When we make the announcement, at that time, we'll also reveal the reason for that delay."
Well this writer is going to make a totally coincidental guess here and assume that third parties received news of the PS4 around the time Square Enix was planning on releasing info regarding Versus XIII last year. So, could that rumor doing the rounds right now about Versus XIII being postponed to be a PS4 title actually be true?
Going back to the cryptic PR babble he closed with "I'm sorry there are things I can't yet talk about, but please wait a little longer."
So, the waiting continues...
