While most of the focus of the latest Dengeki PlayStation magazine scans are naturally on Square Enix’s Fabula Nova Crytallis project, not many noted that at the end of the interview, director Motomu Toriyama mentioned about the fact that Final Fantasy is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year and there will be a few surprise announcements coming soon (see picture on the above). This set off a series of wild guesses from the Japanese at the 2ch forum, including a sequel for every FF games!

On the other hand, PSPFanboy reports that the latest issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine started a little rumor that Square Enix will brings a few titles for the PSP soon which includes remakes and an unexpected brand new FF spin off.

While all these stay as rumors right now, and probably forever, it is no secrets that publishers like anniversaries. Final Fantasy is arguably the biggest franchise in gaming and it is reasonable that Square is putting something together to take the series to a new height, hyping Final Fantasy XIII in the process, picking up from the exposure that Crisis Core and FFT will be getting and thanking it’s legion of PlayStation supporters.
