In a recent interview, Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Gameplay Director Yuji Abe said, “Obviously, Square Enix bought out Eidos a number of years ago, and now we have direct access to American development teams. That’s certainly been discussed within the company, the possibility of say, Eidos or maybe someone else to look after or maybe take on the Final Fantasy series. And we obviously haven’t decided anything concrete, but if we find the right team of developers, the right people who really wanted to do it, and we had the right game, then yes, certainly we’d think about it.” Not sure how I’d feel if they did put Eidos in charge… [Source]
