Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, the strategy RPG for the Gameboy Advance from Square, has been finally confirmed for a North American release.

Complete RPGamer Article Here

Released in Japan back on Valentine's Day, FFTA has been quite successful there.  The original Playstation Final Fantasy Tactics has been successful in North America (Note:  This is not a port of the Playstation game, it is an entire new game and story), so this news does not comes as much of a surprise.  While a concrete release date has not been set as of yet, Square is currently working on localization (translation) of the gameplay  (And considering the translation of the original, one can only hope this one will be a bit better ^_^ ).

There was never really a question whether this game was going to be released on this side of the Pacific, but it's still nice to see a confirmation and to hear that work is progressing well on it.  For those who were unaware of this game's existance or just don't know anything about it, you can see a past news update of mine about it HERE

So... what does everyone think about this game?  Does it have a chance to leap over Ramza and the gang as the best Final Fantasy Tactics game?  

Special thanks goes out to new forum member Silent Moon for pointing out this story.

Hmm. I'm not sure I'm very excited about this. On some website I read about some plot elements about this game and I didn't like the sound of it. But maybe they were wrong...

I can't wait to get tyhis game!!! I love the new storyline, It a suprising twist from the rest of the games!! A kid who likes to play Final Fantasy games and one day he wakes up and his regular world has been turned into a FInal Fantasy world. It's so cool! It's like what .Hack/Infection wanted to be but couldn't make the cut.
