Nobuo Uematsu working on Two Unannounced SE Titles

In a Wired magazine article showcasing the works of Nobuo Uematsu, an interesting piece of information was revealed on the composer’s work and his relations with Square Enix as of today.

Uematsu left Square Enix in 2004, going freelance and establishing his own music production company and record label. He stepped back from Final Fantasy for a while, handing off composing duties to in-house composers while exploring a variety of other freelance game projects. A week ago, Square Enix announced that Uematsu would return to score Final Fantasy XIV.

Uematsu says he’s also composing the soundtracks to two more Square Enix games that will be announced later this year. He’s also working on a solo album of music for children. The album will be released in both Japanese and English, as a nod to his worldwide fans.

What could those two unnamed titles be? Check out the rest of the article for more info on the man behind the music of Final Fantasy.

In response to two possible unnamed titles, I was reading the description for ACC on Play.com (UK version) and I read something about new game trailers for Final Fantasy White and Final Fantasy Black. I don’t know if the feature was on any other version.

I tried looking for information on both titles, but haven’t found anything, no trailers, no information what so ever. Could be something entirely different, but I’m intrigued in what these new titles could be.

  It says the titles will announced later this year. How can they be announced beforehand?

  FF:Black and FF: White as far as I know haven’t been announced, far as I know it could be a mistake on the description for ACC on Play.com, I’m just putting two and two together, not saying that these are definite.

Nobou is awesome but I find myself unable to get excited with anything tied to FFXIV.

But good to see him back.
