Square Enixsurprised uswith the announcement ofFinal Fantasy XIVat E3 this year. The MMORPG came out of nowhere, so I’m also surprised that we might have a chance to try it out in a matter of months. Well, if the rumors are right, that is.
A recently added job posting over atSquare Enixasks for game testers and game masters, withFinal Fantasy XIexperience being a requirement. The game masters would have to be able to start by September, whichJoystiqthinks may be a possible start date for a beta test. Things look more positive when you realize that the game has been in development for five years, and that Square Enix has said that they want the game to have a beta period longer thanFFXI‘s four months.
This isn’t the most solid rumor, but it does point to something going on in the MMO space at Square Enix. I hope it’s true and that they put me on the “list.”
