The Japanese site of Bloomberg was recently given an oppotunity to interview the President of Square Enix, Yoichi Wada, and ask him about his upcoming plans for the company. Wada discussed how he hopes to release a new title in Japan each and every month starting from the firm's new fiscal year (March 2005). The next possible titles include Egg Monster Heroes (DS, March 24), Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song (PS2, April 21), Drakengard 2 (PS2, Spring), Hanjuko Hero 4 (PS2, May 26), Musashi Samurai Legend, and the very much awaited Final Fantasy XII.
According to Yoichi Wada, it may be difficult to release Final Fantasy XII this spring as it was announced last year, but nothing is confirmed at the moment. In the last Famitsu magazine, Yasumi Matsuno (FFXII Director) indicated that his team is working very hard to polish the title and make it the best it can be. He vowed to reveal more information when the time was ready.
Finally, Wada mentioned his interests in working harder in the International scene which should hopefully bring more titles to North America and Europe.
