Square Enix

Square Enix has recently released a brand new action-RPG: The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales. The game has been developed by Team Asano and Claytechworks under the umbrella of Creative Studio 5, previously known for the Octopath Traveler series and the Live A Live remake. The game features the same HD-2D style.

In The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, the duo Elliot and Faie traverse a vast world across four ages, teeming with enemy hordes, hidden caves and ancient ruins. Elliot can wield seven weapon types—ranging from close-quarters swords to versatile chains and sickles that can reel in enemies. Each weapon is customizable through magicite, allowing players to tailor their combat style. Faie’s powerful magic is formidable in and out of battle, whether she’s striking enemies, retrieving items from places Elliot cannot reach, or aiding in exploration.

The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is now available on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X/S and PC via Steam. If you're interested in the game before purchasing it, you can play a demo. Save data will be carried over to the full game. You can watch the release trailer here.

During today's Nintendo Direct Square Enix has announced Final Fantasy Resonance, the first HD-2D game in the Final Fantasy series.

The game is based on the first story arc of Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, a mobile game that released worldwide in 2016, but was discontinued in 2024. The game will not be a direct port of that game, but a full remake.

Final Fantasy Resonance will be released on 22 October 2026 on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X/S and PC. You can watch the announcement trailer here.
