Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is just a couple of weeks away from its Japanese release. Wondering what Square Enix will follow up with for DS owners?
We got somewhat of a hint today as Square Enix at long last broke its silence about SaGa 2, the Japanese version of the DS remake of a Game Boy game that was originally released in America as Final Fantasy Legend II. While announced last year, Square Enix today gave the game an official name, a proper official site, and a release time period.
Previously, the Japanese version was known by the placeholder name SaGa 2: Hiho Densetsu (roughly, "Legend of the Treasure"). The final name is now SaGa 2: Hiho Densetsu Goddess of Destiny.
Of course, this name is just for the Japanese version. There's no word yet on what Square Enix will do with the naming for the international versions. We imagine they might end up keeping the SaGa name this time, since it's the 21st century and all.
The official site is now home to, among other things, actual color artwork, and a trailer movie. You can access the movie under the (you guessed it!) "trailer" icon.
SaGa 2 is now due for Japanese release some time this Fall. Hopefully the wait for an English version won't be too long. To hold you over a bit after you've checked out the trailer, be sure and browse the new screens we've posted.
