For those who still haven't played the first two games of the Final Fantasy series, Square Enix has announced that Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy II will be released on PlayStation Network.

Final Fantasy will be released on 16 February and Final Fantasy II on 2 March and will be priced €9.99 / £7.99 each. It's unknown which version it will be. Likely the PSone version, since Japan also has that version.

Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy will include a voucher that gives 50% off Final Fantasy and The 3rd Birthday will include a voucher for Final Fantasy II.

Update: Final Fantasy has been released and it's the PSP version.

Here are all the announcements from the Square Enix 1st Production Department Premier that took place a couple of hours ago in Japan.

• Kingdom Hearts 3D now has subtitle Dream Drop Distance;
• A paid demo of Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy is available in Japan as of today. Those who will buy it will get Aerith as an extra character in the final version;
• Final Fantasy XIII-2 announced for PS3 and 360!;
• Final Fantasy Agito XIII has been renamed to Final Fantasy Type-0;

The biggest disappointment was that there's still no release date for Final Fantasy Versus XIII, while Final Fantasy XIII-2 will already be released this year.
All the trailers that were shown at the event will be released on 27 January, except Final Fantasy XIII-2, which will be available this Thursday.

Square Enix has adjusted their profit forecast for this fiscal year due to the delayed releases of the PlayStation 3 release of Final Fantasy XIV and the new game in the Dues Ex series.

The company has cut their profit forecast from 12 billion yen($ 142.5 million / € 107.9 million) to 1 billion yen ($ 11.9 million / € 9 million) which is a decrease with more than 90%.

Square Enix has announced that 4 PlayStation Portable games will be released in Europe in early 2011.

The first game that will be released in February 2011 is Lord of Arcana, a new action game where up to 4 players can team-up to slay the darkest daemons. Arriving shortly after that is Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together, a remake from the PSone game that was released back in 1995.
Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy, the sequel to Dissidia: Final Fantasy will hit Europe as third and The 3rd Birthday will be the last game to be released this spring.

All games, except Lord of Arcana, will have a special edition. Full details and exact release date will be announced soon.
