This week's issue of Jump Magazine revealed a new Square Enix title for the Nintendo 3DS handheld, Final Fantasy Explorers.
Final Fantasy Explorers will be a multiplayer action-RPG. We don't know a whole lot about the game yet, and other than that, what we do know is fairly stereotypical for Square Enix: you search for crystals, select from various Jobs as the main strategy element, and fight familiar summons from throughout the series. Nobody pulled any muscles coming up with that concept! The Black Mage, White Mage, Monk, and Knight were all revealed in the Jump article each occupying their accustomed combat roles, while other traditional Jobs from throughout the Final Fantasy series are promised to follow. Ifrit was the only summon revealed, but the article again assured that he would be accompanied by other well-known summons(/espers/eidolons, if you prefer) from throughout the Final Fantasy series. Interestingly, I don't believe anything about Explorers has been shown yet in Square Enix's live-streaming E3 conference. Perhaps it's just too early on in development; or perhaps something will show up tomorrow? Source: Siliconera |

I didn't see any sign of it today on the livestream, either. Perhaps tomorrow?

They might acknowledge it or mention it, but they won't present on it. If it was a magazine exclusive, then it was leaked in a scan (i.e., a few days before the magazine is officially distributed).
But hey, Final Fantasy Monster Hunter with cool boss fights and a job system? I love every part of that sentence. -------------------- |

Just was thinking about a co-op action RPG rather recently...hi there, Squenix.

More info up, from an interview about the game: Linky Dink.
20 classes, ability slots, monster training, local and online multiplayer, similarities to FF XIV: A Realm Reborn and Monster Hunter. This sounds up my alley. -------------------- |
