Can't get enough super golden chocobo? If the greens-loving birds are your favorite aspect of the Final Fantasy franchise, then the upcoming Chocobo and the Magic Picture Book is sure to hit your must-have list. Does that name sound like a '60s rock song to anyone else? "Fantasy will set you free ...."
There aren't yet many details on gameplay or story, but the premise is this: an intrepid young chocobo and his trainer, Shiroma, dive into the title's magic picture book to save their friends from the ever-nefarious black mage. Apparently many of the canon characters from the Final Fantasy series will make an appearance. Sure, there'll be moogles everywhere, kupo, but we're hoping for Wedge and Biggs.
The game, which will be released in Japan this winter, reportedly uses the same 3D engine as Square Enix's other DS offerings.
