Guess Terada might be directing then. Now that Episode Ardyn is out, it's safe to assume that the entire development team will move onto this new project and full-scale development has begun.

Dude on the left has gigantic head from that perspective. It's weird.
Calling FFXVI, and Ito better be the director.

The news here is that production seems to have started. They did say it was a PS5 game and they've been hiring lead artists so we might see this in 3-4 years.
He's saying its in full development now that the XV DLC is done. But yes its been in development for a while now with a small team on it. (tabata mentioned like 30% of the team was on the new ip).
Tabata's team strapped together Nomura's leftovers in a mere 4 years. These people are incredibly qualified. I think an original project is exactly what they need to succeed.
I'm really curious about whether Terada is directing the new project.
I think the FFXV DLC he directed (Episode Ignis and Episode Ardyn) are some of the strongest things to come out of FFXV as a whole, so I think a full game directed by him could do some interesting things.

"high quality, high end" does not give me any faith in the project. I feel like that moniker is what led to FFXV/XIII being the 'failures' they were - heck, even the first release of FFXIV. From what I saw in the FFXIV development documentary from NoClip, Square's production focus on high-quality graphics is what led to it being a mess.
Can't wait until they show it off in five years, rename it two years later and release it three years later.
I have zero faith SE can produce and ship anything without one massive overhaul of the project just before the full production deadline.

Have you read the OP? 🤔
Uh, they're just saying they're working on a new AAA project (who would've thought!?), which we've known since 2017 when it was in pre-production, anyway. It's not like they have revealed anything about it yet. Tabata actually said he didn't want to reveal it until it was closer to release, though he's obviously not there anymore so who knows, but SE has been reducing the reveal-to-release time for most of their games especially recently, see SotTR, JC4, LiS2, TQM etc. that were revealed less than 6 months before release, so they might keep with that plan.

It's a good thing. Look at Capcom they announced RE7 before six months for the launch date. The same thing they did with RE2 R and DMC 5.
They announced RE2 in 2015. Then didn't show anything until the reveal at E3 2018. Cyberpunk was announced in 2012 and wasn't shown until 2018. Bethesda announced TES6 early af too. It's not like others don't announce projects early (sometimes to drive up interest for the hiring process).
these had me rolling!! 😂 especially the last one loool! "2028" haha
oh god this one is even better lmaooo
yall made my day! xD
Hey Koozek how much did you pay for the Royal Ed and ep Ardyn, were they cheap where you live?
Like a true fan I'm waiting for the eventual Complete Edition.
Yeah, he did.
It's not really an announcement to say they're making a game...
I'm kind of expecting this title to not come out that late into PS5's life cycle. The staff at Luminous is time savvy and I believe they kept stuff from the previous pre-production phase.
If I were to guess, it's likely than we get to play this around the time a second Final Fantasy VII Remake entry releases.

If you were to choose between this project, the next mainline Final Fantasy and one of the Final Fantasy VII Remake releases to be a Destiny-clone, what which one would you pick? A sacrifice must be made.
