Square to reveal new Star Ocean

RPG powerhouse Square Enix is to reveal a new title in its Star Ocean series, claims the latest issue of Japanese Famitsu.

According to a mag the new installment - which is not specified for any particular platform - is to be officially unveiled at the Square Enix Party 2007 event next month.

The series last PS2 installment, Till the End of Time sent the legions of Japanese fans insane, updating on the SNES original with a real-time combat system and 80 stat-counting hours of touted gameplay. This new installment will no-doubt reach similar levels of fan hysteria.

The Square Enix bash is set to go down on May 12 - we'll have our eyes locked for any announcements and let you know what happens.
