    This rumor goes around with every FF game. Square hasnt said anything about ending the series, and since they've decided that it, along with Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest/Warrior, will be one of the three pillars of the company, ending it seems doubtful.

    Not to mention that FFVII: Dirge of Cerebrus is coming out way after XII.

    I saw, on a gaming site (could have been IGN), that Square has put FFXIII on the list for new games coming out on the next-gen consoles.

    Maybe it's wrong, but I think they'll keep them coming, anyways.


    "... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."

    I imagine XIII comes out for PS2 and XIV comes out for PS3, b/c their games always ran in series of 3s... and don't tell me X-2 counts...

    Um... PS2 had X, XI, and XII. XIII will be on the PS3 if the trend continues.

    I read years ago that XII would be the last, but I don't think that is still true.

    yup they have been working on them and as far as i know they are already 25% done through alot of the work of 13 ^_^... 13 has been in progress since 2000-01 though >.< I remember seeing sketches for it YEARS ago!

    IN a recent interview with the square pres. they dont feel that they will be planning an end to the series till 13 is complete.

    After FFVIII, Square announced FFIX-XI and released some extremely preliminary screenshots and artwork for all three games. Nothing about FFXII, though, and certainly nothing about FFXIII.

    I dont have the sketches nor could i ever help you with finding them... like i said, its been years. I am sure that after this year they will release them when they are more ready with it.

    What I do know is that I remember seeing one of the sketches for thirteen and they seemed to have a few new "species" or "races" of humanoids in the works... the sketches were just sketches but it does seem that they have some amazing creatures to come ^_^

    You're probably talking about the sketches of what eventually became FFIX, from when it had the job system and that chocobo-copter and a black-furred and masculine-looking Freya and all. Again, Square didn't release anything for FFXII or FFXIII back then.

    5.6 Is this going to be the last Final Fantasy?
    No, definitely not. I still wonder how people come to that conclusion, but there's no truth to this rumor. Last indication was an interview from Square president Wada in Mainichi Interactive (translated in http://www.rpgfan.com/news/2004/1186.html) mentioning that some innovations designed for FFXII might become standard for the series.
    In the meantime, Wada mentioned in one interview that work was underway on FFXIII as well.
    Can we close this thread now?
