Several "big ticket" names are attached to this one. Takehiko Inoue on Character Design, Nobuo Uematsu on Music, and, of course, Hironobu Sakaguchi. You might recognize some of those names as ex-Square/Enix employees, in fact Nobuo Uematsu is responsible for the music in Final Fantasy 1-11.Mistwalker, the studio headed by Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, is to use Epic's Unreal Engine 3. The first title to use the engine of choice for next-gen development is Lost Odyssey. The RPG isn't actually being developed my Mistwalker, with that task being given to Feel Plus, a company with over 100 staff which was partly formed by Microsoft.
