    This is a port of the PSP version, hence the "War of the Lions" in the title. They have not announced any new content, just that it is a port of the PSP version.

    Good to know it. I'm seriously intrigued by the mysterious graphics of the games and the dress-up of the protagonist.Waiting for more surprises.

    Well, it says the release date is from mid-June to July, so I'm going to guess that it'll be July.

    I am guessing we will see a July release if they do release it during their most recently announced schedule. I thought I heard that they are using this time to optimize the game and work on the resolution? I don't know if that is referring to the whole game or just the character portraits.

    Pics of the game so far have looked like it was a bit blurry, so I would be very pleased if they were able to update at least the sprites to look good at a higher resolution.

    A small, hopeful part of me wishes for additional content, but I honestly don't expect it.

    No, if they had stayed on schedule we would have gotten it September 15 2010. Maybe i'm beating a dead horse but between voice fantasy all of the other games square enix has come out with between last year and this month I'm getting impatient. Considering it's a port and their not remaking it I don't understand how it's taken over a year. Regardless I'm pretty sick of squares PR at this point.

    They had to redo a majority of the graphics to fit two different displays, come up with an entirely new touch interface, develop an engine so the game works on iOS, and also find some way to compress everything to a reasonable size. Then they had to beta test. Sounds like a lot of work to me.

    On the plus side I'm hopeful the delay means when Final Fantasy Tactics finally dose release they'll have a sale on Final Fantasy III (which never would have occurred if they released together as once expected).

    Maybe it's alot of work but I don't think it's a years worth of work, not when they have the pre existing code. Regardless I agree that griping is pointless, and if it released tomorrow I'd be grateful it released "early" lol.

    On their facebook, today, they posted:

    "J..u...ly...."

    And some of the commenters asked if its FFT:WoL coming in July and they said:

    "We haven't given up releasing FFT:WoL in June yet. But... July is coming just around the corner >_<"

    So its pretty soon :)
