News: No Final Fantasy Guilty Wing

A new Final Fantasy game is in development for the Gamecube!

Last week, rumours hit the internet about a new Final Fantasy game for the Gamecube after a Japanese magazine published concept art from a game called "Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing" said to be in development by Square-Enix. The aforementioned rumours were then said to be false by a number of sites and publications...

...but it seems they were wrong! This months issue of V-Jump magazine has published art from the game under the same name and confirms that this game is currently in development!

No further details are available on the title at this time, and we would hope that mre information will be released closer to E3. However, apparently it states in the magazine that the game, which will be exclusive to Gamecube, will possibly be set in the Final Fantasy VII universe -which many fans believe represents the epitome of Final Fantasy. Will this be in the mould of a fully fledged Final Fantasy game? Or will it break away and try something new like Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles? If the not-so-good sales of the above are anything to go by, we can only hope that the Cube will soon have its' very own classic Final Fantasy game!

Update: No Guilty Wing

It appears that our online source, Spong, have fallen for a practical joke. FF: Guilty Wing is a hoax. Square-Enix denies to have this game in developments, and on top of that, V-Jump magazine claims that they did not announce this game in their magazine.

IGN GameCube reported though, that Square-Enix is working on a yet to be revealed title for the Nintendo GameCube. It could be a Final Fantasy game, or it could be something completely different. As soon as we know more we will let you know!
