Famitsu has conducted an interview with Nomura about the upcoming DKΣ3713 private event, and managed to get a few new details:
- DKΣ3713 is a private show. So for the general public that wants to see and play the games, TGS in October will feature more new information.
- The event will be at the same format as previous S-E events, with closed theatre as well as playable booths outside.
- Birth by Sleep will be playable for the first time at the event.
- Despite the news that Square Enix was going to scale back from Mobile development, it appears that Kingdom Hearts: Coded, 3rd Birthday and Agito XIII will still be going ahead.
- Agito XIII seems to be facing serious development issues at the moment. There is a huge worldview and historical timeline.
- The director of Agito XIII is doing the outline of the entire story synopsis himself now, development is still in early stages.
-
Versus XIII is on hold until FFXIII is done, because the entire Versus team is helping to finish Final Fantasy XIII at the moment. It is number one priority.
- While the planners and programmers are all working on Final Fantasy XIII, the Versus project is getting the designers to work on a lot of image illustrations and conceptual visuals. The story for Versus is also pretty much complete.
- Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days is being tuned and balanced, but it is not quite as polished as Dissidia yet. They'll be taking feedback from the playable demo.
- Birth by Sleep is not anywhere close to a final build, but Nomura wants to let people get a chance to try it out first.
- Advent Children Complete might finally be close to getting a release date.
