Final Fantasy XIV: Online announced for 2010

Yesterday during the Sony E3 conference the gaming giant announced the development of a new title in the massively successful Final Fantasy series. Final Fantasy XIV will be the next online Final Fantasy game, taking the series in a futuristic, sci-fi direction.

Sony gave us a massive gameplay video during their presentation, which showed off some truly awesome special effects. There were some fantastic aircraft battles and, of course, the obligatory giant tentacled monster. I didn't catch any Chocobos (or Biggs and Wedge for that matter) but I think we can rest assured that all of the classic Final Fantasy elements will be in attendance.

It's odd that Sony would let this info out so far ahead of the game's release. Final Fantasy XIII isn't even out yet, and they're already giving us a fairly advanced-looking sneak peak. We won't get to see this until Spring, 2010 but they have a lot of polished footage to show us nonetheless. When Final Fantasy XIII does hit stores, it will be out exclusively for the PlayStation 3. Congratulations, Sony fans, you've got a great looking title on the way.
