Any chance for a Xenogears Crossover Event?

[Kaliesto]

there is no way they would do it for some ancient niche game square did not even bother to release worldwide.

Sakurai from Nintendo would like a word :P.

Jokes aside, you never know...

[cactusbees]

Uh. Yes, please?

That niche game is still in the top 20 JRPG sales for Japan and the US, 20 years later. Just because it didn't get widespread coverage/was overshadowed by a certain Final Fantasy release, doesn't mean it doesn't have a strong following.

Plus, it would be an awesome crossover between Square/Monolith/Bandai.

I doubt it, though Xenogears is one of my favorite RPGs of all time. It would #1 if it wasn't for the rushed cutscene exposition at the end due to time and resource constraints placed on the game.

I'd rather just see more from the Xenogears style of tech, camera-work, and map color tones, delivered in XIV's own way, rather than yet another crossover.

If I remember right that was a very popular game and I still have it for my ps1. I would love to see a crossover event one day for it. Same for a Star Ocean crossover.

Aww, you don't want Soylent added to the CUL menu? =D

I think Eulmore already perfected that recipe in ShB's canon...

Soylent Green White is people ascended Eulmoran citizens!

While we did get a hot blonde villain with it.. Ramsus he is not. I would like a refund on that Solarian.

[Magnedeus]

Still waiting on that Xenosaga trilogy.

Yeah I was going to say,

Xenogears is wayyy bigger than that. At the time it came out, yeah it may have been niche... but not anymore.

Its one of the deepest and most interesting Squaresoft games to come out, not to mention a really cool and innovative combat system including mech style combats.

Though admittedly it would be hard to squeeze the lore into FFXIV.
