Tetsuya Nomura has shared a few details with Dengeki on the upcoming "Square Enix 1st Production Department Premier" event (formerly the "Fabula Nova Crystallis Conference").
The event was originally scheduled for January 11, but was pushed back to January 18. The reason for this was due to timing related to magazine publishing.
While the event was originally announced as being mostly a press event, it has instead shifted to being a "premium event" for fans. The focus will be not on demos but on video footage.
Developers of the various games will appear at the event.
Versus will, as expected, be shown at the event. We'll get to hear main character Noctis speak for the first time. In addition, we'll get to see plenty of actual footage from the game, although this is apparently before the game's visuals have been given a quality bosot.
Kingdom Hearts 3D and Kingdom hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix will also be shown.
No Custom Voices for International 3rd Birthday
The Japanese version of The 3rd Birthday lets players switch main character Aya Brea's voice to match her current costume (in case you didn't already know, both Aya and Lightning (FFXIII) are voiced by Maaya Sakamoto). This is something that won't be in the English version of the game, Tetsuya Nomura reveals in a Dengeki interview this week.
Nomura also told the magazine that the game's shower scene will be difficult to unlock. He believes it would have been just as fine if it hadn't been in the game.
We could get more shooters from Nomura and crew. He told the magazine that if he were to make a shooter in the future, he'd like to make use of the experience learned from The 3rd Birthday.
So... any guesses for Noctis' VA? For some reason, I keep thinking Takehiro Sakurai.
