For the first time ever the Mana series is coming to Xbox. The new game in the series – Visions of Mana – is releasing on Xbox Series X|S this summer.
This was announced at the Developer_Direct today. In a surprise announcement, as it was the only game people didn’t know about being shown, Square Enix showed the gameplay of the newest addition to the series. And this isn’t a small announcement, as it’s the first mainline addition to the series in over 15 years.
The Mana series started back in 1991 as a sidestory for Final Fantasy. But, in the past 32 years the game has turned into a staple of the Square Enix portfolio.
I had a small tugging feeling that MS would bring something JP related again because I feel their strategy is to constantly push that at every show, I was just confused on how that would actually happen without Tango this time. So the “solution” was to let “guests” star in the Directs.
