Next Compilation Title Announced [Updated]
This afternoon in Japan, Square-Enix held a brief press conferance, shortly after the final episode of Before Crisis was made available for download. The conferance was private and only available to members of the news media, though some information has leaked in the last couple of hours on the Japanese 2ch message boards.

The conferance was primarily focused on Before Crisis, with the team behind the game discussing the success and creative process, however before the meeting came to a close, they made a surprising revelation.

They ran a brief trailer for the next title in the Compilation of FFVII, tentatively titled "Era Clash -Final Fantasy VII-". The game is being designed by much of the same team behind Before Crisis, and will also be released on the mobile platform, specifically the latest generation of iMode phones, which are capable of displaying detailed 3D graphics.

Click on Full Story for full details, and check back later for any new developments.

Edit 1: A photograph was uploaded to a vipuploader service just a bit ago and posted on 2ch. Credit to Cloud_S for finding it.

Edit 2: A second photograph was uploaded, this time from a different angle, showing the game's logo. It is in the same style as Before Crisis, and features a SOLDIER, pretty much confirming the reports about playing as one.

Edit 3: Another photo, this time just a screen. It's small, and was already cropped (apparantly it was from far away). The text is garbeled, but it supposedly says something about SOLDIER 13th Unit, "Ragnarok".

A Square-Enix MailMagazine was released to subscribers to showcase the event. The article includes an overview of the game, as well as a summary of the final two Episodes, as well as the first decent screenshot of Zirconiade.

Although information on the final chapter is a bit sketchy at the moment, keep an eye on the main page and on the forums for the latest information as it comes in.

Yoichi Wada hints at FFVII Remake?
During the recent launch event for Final Fantasy XII held in Japan, Square-Enix president Yoichi Wada was asked by a fan about the possibility of a remake of Final Fantasy VII for the PS3. Although he could not give a definate answer, he smiled and said it was possible due to the demand and that possibilities are being examined. Let's hope that the possibilities come true.
