    As we all know by now, Square Enix loves to tease things. Usually we get really excited about it and it turns out to be some mobile game that wont even be released in the EU, NA, or AU regions that most of our fans on Eyes on FF are from. Guess what is happening?

    Square Enix is teasing another game on this new webpage with a simple 1.8.2014 logo. This time though we already know it's a mobile game because it's in conjunction with social media games developer Gloop.

    Now of course we will have to wait until Jan 8th to figure out what it is. The background image has a bit of a Final Fantasy feel to it but Gloop tends to have some very stylized art so it could be anything. The site refers to it as "Destiny 8" or "Destiny VIII".

    What is your opinion on yet another mobile game by SE? What's your opinion on SE an its love for teaser sites? Do you think teasers like this should be reserved for bigger titles to build hype? Share your thoughts!

      Destiny VIII makes me think of FFVIII which makes me think of Triple Triad. A mobile triple triad game could be fun if that really were what it was (which I doubt it).

      I don't play mobile games, so this doesn't interest me too much. I also hate Square's use of teaser sites. I think teaser sites should really be left to something bigger than a mobile game that more people would actually want. Maybe these games are big in Japan, though.

      The first tiddlywink is free but you have to pay extra to get other tiddlywinks to tiddle.

      If someone made a Triple Triad CCG for smartphones/ipads etc. the amount of money they would make could literally fill Scrooge McDuck's money bin.

      I mean like 3ds and psp games are fine but
      I barely use my mobile phone for anything.

      C'mon SE! I don't enjoy being teased! WTH?! DX

      But then again, the surprise could be good or bad... Guess we had to wait and find out.

      1.8.2014? That's like nearly 8 months away, why start teasing already now?

      I think the date is actually Jan. 8th, so in three days from now we will find out what SE were teasing us about. But yeah, it sounds a little cruel for them to tease us in an 8-month period timeframe. X)

      あなたは、このゲームの虜になる means "You will become obsessed with this game" or similar.

      Does anyone here speak Japanese?

      Oh great, another teaser for a product that their fan-base most likely don't want.
