Square Enix to announce new Final Fantasy title on September 1st

Say what you will, but any new title from Square Enix is still cause for hope.

A new teaser website has gone live with the title “A Storm Gathers.” We know the game will be related to the Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2’s character Lightning, but specifics have yet to be announced.

From the website:

“The “Lightning Saga” that started with the release of FINAL FANTASY XIII, has achieved a cumulative shipment of over 9.6 million units; and in May 2012 FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 was brought to conclusion with the add-on content entitled “Lightning’s Story: Requiem of the Goddess”.

Key members of the FINAL FANTASY XIII development team including the Producer, Director and Art Director, are in preparations to present new information about the direction of Lightning’s story. This presentation will take place at an event in Tokyo to celebrate FINAL FANTASY 25th Anniversary, on 1st September 2012.”
