Square Enix recently announced that they would start releasing more and more information about Final Fantasy Agito XIII once Final Fantasy XIII is released in December. This strongly suggests that it will be the next title released under the Fabula Nova Crystallis umbrella.
Out of the three Fabula Nova Crystallis titles, Final Fantasy Agito XIII has probably garnered the least attention. Rightly so, as unlike the other two, it's only being released on the PlayStation Portable.
With the much anticipated release of the PSP go, many can't wait to get it on with the Powerful Bite Size Portable. However, the PSP go provides some restrictions for developers that may hinder the release of some of your most sought after PSP games.
