Square Enix has expressed interest in developing a PlayStation Vita version of Final Fantasy XII.
Speaking to Play Magazine, Final Fantasy producer Yoshinori Kitase explained his reasons for wanting to re-release the critically-acclaimed JRPG for Sony’s latest handheld platform.
“We’d love a Vita version of Final Fantasy 12…I am also hoping that this HD remaster will open up some great possibilities in the future.
“The gaming scene has changed quite a bit from 10 years ago and today’s younger generation who grew up with smart devices now carry these devices around with them to play games whenever and wherever they want, not just when they go outside but also at home, wherever they may be in the house as well. Even when they are in the toilet!
“One of the appealing things about the PS Vita is that it allows for this kind of play style. In addition to that, another advantage is that it has a wonderful LCD display that can hold up to the PS3 in terms of graphical quality.”
Square Enix is currently developing a high-definition remake of Final Fantasy X and its sequel, which will be released for PlayStation 3 and PS Vita.
