Square Enix reveals new franchise

Continuing to bolster the flood of announcements primed for this weekend's Square Enix Party, the company has revealed The Last Remnant, a new RPG franchise set to focus on the Western audience.

Earlier this year the RPG powerhouse confirmed that it had licensed the stupidly-popular Unreal Engine 3 - and it looks like this is the game that's using the Epic tech.

The not much info going around on the new franchise yet, apart from its simultaneous release in both Japan and North America (with us hopefully getting it within a year after that, if we're good).

Look for more details to emerge from Square Enix's bash this weekend.

Geared towards a western audience certainly sounds pleasing to me. I hate turn-based combat with a passion...

I couldn't agree more. The turnbased fighting is why I hate Final Fantasy. Pokemon somehow pulls it off amazingly well.

And Enix with Epic: This will truly be Epic!
