just when the u.s. was starting to approach parity with japan in the arena of final fantasy titles on the psone classics platform, we go and hear this: according to andriasang, final fantasy v has been announced for psn in japan. the title is slated to launch this spring as a promotion for dissidia 012[duodecim] final fantasy, which has a japanese release date of march 3.

the game will be the upgraded psone version of the snes rpg, which received a standalone release in japan but came to north america as part of the final fantasy anthology. of course, it probably won't make the trip stateside this time around -- though sony has explained the reasons why psone classics releases differ from country to country, it's clear that they straight cold hate us.
final fantasy v announced for psone classics (in japan, of course) originally appeared on joystiq on tue, 15 feb 2011 23:00:00 est. please see our terms for use of feeds.
