Square Enix unveils its lineup to the Tokyo Game Show 2021 which includes more Stranger of Paradise, Final Fantasy XIV, Forspoken and more.
Square Enix Announces Tokyo Game Show 2021 Online Lineup Schedule
The Square Enix lineup for TGS 2021 has been unveiled over the weekend, with a number of titles being featured this year. This includes Dragon Quest X Online, Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier the mobile game, Final Fantasy XIV, as well as more of Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin.
Last we saw of Stranger of Paradise was the time-limited demo that was released earlier this year. It provided a small taste of what the Action-RPG has to offer in terms of Final Fantasy story but with a more souls-like twist. The game is being developed by Team Ninja, known for the Ninja Gaiden and Nioh franchises. It will be great to see more of what’s to come of this interesting title.
Also announced is “A Stroll with Yoshi-P” which will be focusing on Final Fantasy XIV, presented by Naoki Yoshida (Producer & Director, FINAL FANTASY XIV) and Toshio Murouchi (Global Community Producer, FINAL FANTASY XIV). No doubt we’ll be getting another look at Endwalker which is the next big expansion to release in November for FFXIV.
