That’s great but out of this list, only FF XIV and Lara croft interest me, I really wanted some info about XV, I hope that it will be mentioned in TGS like AnimaMagna suggested above though! They can’t keep teasing us like that! We need FF XV info already, I get more and more afraid that this game will be out at around 2017-2018 in the end!
Somehow, I doubt whether this will be all the Square Enix games that shall be seen there. I’m not holding out for XV or KHIII as it’s looking increasingly likely that they will have an info blowout at TGS this year, but even this I am not holding out for too strongly. But as to Agito, and possibly Type-0 HD, I’m a tiny bit more hopeful (especially for Agito). It’s about time Square Enix bolstered their lineups.
