**NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Yes, that's right.

No, you're not seeing things.

Square Enix have announced that they will be producing a new Lufia title.

quote RPGamer.net

A short article on Famitsu.com has revealed a new Lufia title for an unannounced console. The Japanese title is Estpolis: The Lands Cursed by the Gods. It will be published by Square Enix and made by the development team of the original titles.

It has been over six years since the last Lufia game was released on the Game Boy Advance, although fond memories of Lufia 2 endure for many fans. More details on the new title will be revealed in next week's Famitsu, which will be in stores Nov. 19th.
Awesome news, huh?

Wow this is unexpected and awesome news. I would like to know exactly what console it is on but I am guessing it will be a ds title. Hopefully there will be some more news soon.

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Yeah, the Nintendo DS seems the most vialble platform.

I wonder if the game will stick to it's roots, and if it too will have awesome music! ;D

I'd also love anime cutscenes! ;D

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Anime cutscenes would go well with the ds platform.

I hope they do not try and change much from the original. I did not play the gba games so i do not know how they played but I think that if kept close to it's roots it will be an awesome game.

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Please don't reuse the "OMG ______ IS A SINISTRAL?!" twist again, Taito. It wasn't effective the second time around.

Though I'll admit, it did throw me for a bit in the first game.

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

I agree.

I'd like to see something other than Erim being with the party for one reason or another...

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

This just in: The main character is really Daos!

Not really, but it would be a bit of an interesting twist. Hopefully we'll find out about Arek the Absolute this itme though.

Yeah, Arek is just a complete mystery. -_-

Loved hearing about this ~ Found out about it a while ago, but I didn't know where to post the news. >_>;;

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Ouh! I beat Hoa Dao to posting the news. ;D

I wonder if the Sinistrals will even be in this game? I guess they provide the crux of most of the other titles.

I hope Capsule Monsters return. ;D

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Hmm according to the latest news at Lufia World [ http://www.lufiaworld.com/ ], it's a remake of Lufia II.

Which isn't bad :'D I've always wanted a more, er, legal way to play Lufia XD;; It's in an Action RPG form, though, huh.

edit: also, it's for the DS XD

edit: and there are scans too. ^^

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

I can't load the site, Damn this slow internet

Lufia 2 remade in action rpg style. Not sure if this is good news or bad news. A remake of lufia 2 is awesome but how can you make lufia into an action rpg?

Loaded the site =)

3d graphic and voice acting......I'm getting scared now. I really ope they don't screw this up. Feb 2010 japanese release. Wonder when we will see it.

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

So Selen will now be called Selena? That's interesting. ;D I wonder if that means that the character restrictions on name lengths will be lengthened for the other characters too?

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

No no, Selena was her JP name. XD

edit: And I don't think they plan on giving them their original names when this comes out in English. XD For nostalgia's sake. They didn't give them their original names for Final Fantasy VI. =P

There's a debate at GamwFAQs about it being a "remake."

If you compare it to FFIII and IV DS, it's really more of a "recreation" than a "remake" - that is, they're re-writing things here and there, etc... maybe adding a few things and such.

Maxim's new design put me off for a while, but after reading that it's more of a recreation than a remake, it makes a bit more sense. ^^;

Guy's new design makes me cry, though. ;-; You can see him in the screenshots.

re: **NEW** Lufia Game Announced

Yeah, making it an action RPG as opposed to what it traditionally is, is kind of a dead give away that it's not a direct remake.

Haha~! Guy looks like a beefy douche! But I do like Maxim's design. I think this game looks really good. I mean look at the scale for some of the boss battles. The characters are tiny in comparison to some of those enemies! Makes things proportionate.

I am interested to see how all the villages and towns will be redesigned and will look. Will they all bear their own different themes?

I think this would have to be one of the games I am most looking foreward to! ;D
