OP, no where in this PDF does it say Q4.

Whilst its obvious this game will come out Q4 2018, this PDF does not confirm that officially.

Yeah i won't believe it until an actual hard release date is set. Don't have time to be speculating what Q4 2018 is gonna be. Makes me feel like how they did release date announcements of FFXV then it kept getting delayed and the whole slot machine fiasco of a date.

It says 2018 right in the PDF that was posted along with "We expect FY2019/3 earnings to benefit from the launches of major titles including "SHADOW OF THE TOMB RAIDER" and "KINGDOM HEARTS 3." Our plan is to announce the details of our forthcoming lineup at E3 in June."

Yeah, Q3 of FY 2019 should translate to Q4 of calendar-year 2018. I'm guessing November.

I don't even believe this is really happening and I still said "what" aloud four times just reading the title of this thread.

Still going to cross my fingers that it falls into the 2018 year, but if it doesn't, then at least we can say that it will be a good frontrunner for 2019.

Either way, I'm in the same camp as everyone else that wants to see this game come out ASAP. Finally seeing the game in action has me hyped, and I can't wait to see what we see next week.

For some reason I remembered the first one of a new year to actually be the last of the previous fiscal year. Disregard me then.

When it comes to fiscal years, you're correct. So this game, if it releases after September 30, will be in Q1 of fiscal year 2019 and Q4 of calendar year 2018.

Yeah, Q3 of FY 2019 should translate to Q4 of calendar-year 2018. I'm guessing November.

Q3 of FY2019 would be April-June next year.

While you're not wrong they would've probably indicated an FY18 if that was the case. Also we are now in FY19.

When it comes to fiscal years, you're correct. So this game, if it releases after September 30, will be in Q1 of fiscal year 2019 and Q4 of calendar year 2018.



Q3 of FY2019 would be April-June next year.

Slight correction, Square Enix start/end of the FY is in April (the ending year denoting the FY) so next year's April-June is actually Q1 FY2020.

Edit: i should just use their wording to not confuse myself. We are currently in the Q1 of the FY ending mar2019.
So in other words it's pretty clear this Q4 is referring to calander year.

The only way it'd come out this year would have been the last 3 months or a surprise non pre September announcement (because they're not releasing it against dq11 that month, I mean SE can be dumb, but not that dumb).

Really want it for Q1 of next year and release the same day KH1 and KH2 did... And to ensure its polished to the maximum!

My understanding is that it depends on the company, but for Square, the fiscal year should be from April to March.

well, ads have been showing up near bus stops. so if anything, marketing of 6+ months prior to release is the norm.
