Another update on Square-Enix's 'NEW GAME'

PALGN News | A boy riding a dragon over the countryside.

We only just reported on the dragon and new music appearing on Square-Enix's strange 'NEW GAME' website, but today something else has appeared on the website.

If you go on the site now you will find that a boy wielding a sword and shield has appeared, sitting on the dragon that only recently showed up. The picture makes sense now with only the large number '4' looking odd.

A game about a young hero riding a dragon, has Square-Enix done this before?

UPDATE

A girl has now joined the boy. Now we have a boy and girl riding a dragon over the countryside.

Awww, a boy and his flying pet.

Hold on, this sounds familiar. Could this be Sqare Enix's answer to The Last Guardian? Those dastardly devils, they will never succeed!

Could it be as awesome as Draken? I doubt it.

Wait, was Bahamut Lagoon done by Square? If so we could be seeing a next gen BL title.

Nice picture, the song was pretty nice though. I wonder what Sqaure is up to...

This looks to me like a new Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.

He's got a ho on there with him as well. Cruising round on his dragon with his woman I imagine, probably headed to the main drag to cut a few bad laps.

I doubt it'll be a new Tactic's Advance as they've already released a sequel to that on the DS, also won't be a Bahamut Lagoon sequel (I'm still waiting for one) as the art style doesn't match the previous title at all.

I'm thinking it's probably an FF spin-off on DS/Wii, or maybe a new IP but still on one of those 2 consoles.

^ then what about the '4'? I thought drakengard at first but it doesn't match up... so either a fourth entry to a series, or maybe something to be released on 4 platforms?

Or 4 main characters? Seriously I thought that would have been the first thing people would have assumed.

I assume it was the 4th in series or 4th anniversary, tbh...

Seem's this new game is another Final Fantasy game for the DS.

"Final Fantasy Gaiden is a DS RPG in which players take control of a 14-year-old boy tasked with saving a princess. The game kicks off on your birthday as you're summoned by a King whose daughter has been kidnapped by a witch."

Here is the article

Damn was hoping it would be a Wii title, oh well.

What a fantastic and original idea. I can't wait.

Some scans from over at Kotaku:

I'll just say one thing. The game looks ugly as ****. Seriously compared to Square's other efforts on the DS it looks like the just put in no effort whatsoever.

Are you kidding? Bit hard to tell from those tiny, scanned shots - but it's looking pretty lush to me. I'm really digging the style of it, sparse details and smooth, solid, eye-catching colours and shapes.

Those shots give me an interest in the game - although, again, they're so tiny and grainy! I would like to see more.

Okay let me be more specific. The character designs look ugly as ****.

*shrug*

I don't see it. They just look like standard fare fantasy stylised anime characters.
