Looks like the PlayStation 3 is getting a double dose of Final Fantasy next year, as Sony reveals a new online Final Fantasy XIV for the PlayStation 3. Yes, XIV.

A complete and utter surprise to the entire audience, Final Fantasy XIV will be coming to the PlayStation 3 exclusively next year, assumedly after Final Fantasy XIII is released. A brief trailer was shown which looked very much like Final Fantasy XI, with the text "A new online epic begins."

So it sounds like an exclusive, massively multiplayer online game for the PlayStation 3. We'll have more as soon as there is more to have!

FF14 announced moments ago. It's online, releasing in 2010. No word if this is in fact rapture, but we'll see...



This has to be rapture, I"m sure now. There's no way SE is making an MMO FFXIV in 2010, AND a Project Rapture MMO also released in 2010. That and the art style from the 2 SS I saw look a lot like the FFXI art style. (a good thing IMO)

Make a MMORPG that's exclusive for the least popular game system on the market, good call SE.

Well, to be fair. It's not the least popular in native Japan, and consoles and PCs are mutually exclusive, so as far as I'm concerned, this is still releasing on Windows as well.

It looks pretty and all, but I can't say that I'm really impressed so far.

I honestly think SE is dropping the ball here. Making another MMO with the Final Fantasy name seems like a pretty bad idea to me when they still have FFXI going decently strong with still more planned new content to be added. Players and thus support will migrate over to the new game, effectively killing one in short order in favor of the other. I mean, this is actually probably the desired effect, maybe the costs of maintaining FFXI are not worth the income generated by it, but it seems to me that if they had used a different IP for their new MMO, they could have grabbed more market share and had two monthly revenue streams going instead of one. Granted any known SE IP would steal market share from FFXI, I doubt it would do so as drastically as just having another Final Fantasy.

I guess I'm just bitter because my hopes for a Dragon Quest MMO have been dashed, lol.
