Square Enix U.S.A., Inc. To Unveil Epic New Role Playing Games at E3 2003
Making its first E3 appearance since the recent merger between Square and Enix, Square Enix U.S.A. is poised to take role-playing games (RPGs) to the next level with a variety of innovative titles.
Description
UNLIMITED Saga, the first in the legendary series for the PS2, pushes the genre with eclectic art styles and a sophisticated gameplay structure. Director and producer, Akitoshi Kawazu has found uncharacteristic ways to apply the new technologies, creating a game that is not only revolutionary but also unique in presentation. While UNLIMITED Saga has utilized advanced tools for gameplay, it has opted for traditional techniques in its visual representation. All of the graphics are hand-drawn and hand-painted, rare in a time when computer-generated images are the norm. In addition, a completely new method of computer-generated graphics named “Sketch Motion” has been created to bring forth detailed 2D animation, going beyond the limitations of 3D polygons. The Saga series known best for its ever-evolving battle system has returned with the introduction of the “Reel” system, adding new variations to familiar combos and skill development. The latest in audio technology has also been implemented to enhance sound composition. Pioneering ground-breaking features into UNLIMITED Saga, Akitoshi Kawazu’s vision has resulted in another milestone title for SQUARE. The story is uniquely told through the eyes of seven different protagonists, each with their own motivations for seeking the seven grand menaces. Each protagonist follows their enemy to the Seven Wonders. However, they are not aware that the antagonists are seeking to obtain the power of the Seven Wonders for their own incentive. The Seven Wonders is a group of structures shrouded in mystery. Legends say long absent Gods lie within them and their release will trigger a rebirth of the Golden Age. Fates cross in a town during the hustle and bustle of a festival.
