For talk about the Valkyrie Profile sequel, use the other thread instead.

The second game is a Breath of Fire compilation consisting of the first two SNES titles with updated graphics and modern HD cut-scenes added in. The limited information we were given leads us to believe that outside of the visuals and FMV, these are basically straight ports on a single disc. Again, the franchise started on Nintendo consoles and made the jump to the Sony brand. We can't see any reason the compilation couldn't make the leap to Wii and PS3 unless of course Microsoft pulled out the check book. It could also come down to who's getting paid since Square originally owned ONLY the North American rights to Breath of Fire I, while Capcom owns the franchise as a whole.

While we're all fanboys at heart, I think I speak for everyone when I say we hope these don't stay exclusive. Based on Star Ocean, we're likely looking at a time-exclusive for Xbox 360 since tri-Ace is experienced on both consoles. The Breath of Fire comp-disc isn't exactly going to be pushing any hardware limits if it does turn out to just be a port with visual upgrades, so the Wii should get some love too.

That sounds interresting for me. With an HD remake, there is the chance that the gameplay might get revamped. Say Hello to BOF3 and 4 gameplay

Acid · **Reply #5 on:** April 11, 2010, 04:13:26 PM

A BoF3 remake might be cool too. With sprites similar to those they used in the credits.

Or the ending, in the desert. C:

And here I was worried that everyone else would only care about the VP sequel...

It doesn't seem terribly likely that MS would pay to get BoF as a 360 exclusive, so I have hopes for it being on the Wii fastly.

Acid · **Reply #8 on:** April 11, 2010, 04:21:59 PM

I share your hopes.

Mirby · **Reply #9 on:** April 11, 2010, 06:32:51 PM

Sadly, the only VP game I've played is the DS one... and once I get my external I'll get the original for sure. As for this, I used to have the original two. Didn't really like them back then. Recently, I decided to try them out again, and they're pretty fun!

But the fact that these are 360-only for the time being? That sucks.
I'll have to convince the Sky Fish to get this!

Fxeni · **Reply #10 on:** April 11, 2010, 09:07:38 PM

Definitely keeping my eye on this one, since the first two BoFs are the only ones I managed to play. Should really get around to 3 at the very least when I can.

Acid · **Reply #11 on:** April 11, 2010, 09:11:33 PM

Get the PSP version.

You won't regret it.

GoFanboy? ...

When a more reputable source of news arises, then maybe I'll take notice. But GoFanboy is just another faceless blog that was crafted like a month or so ago. It doesn't even have HipHopGamer's level of "credibility".

It had better be true...

Rumor has spread like wildfire already, all of them ultimately linking that gofanboys report. I helped!

ST Jestah · **Reply #15 on:** April 12, 2010, 02:43:36 AM

I do hope this is true, Mostly because I wanna reown this two games.

Plus it be nice to see how the games would look like in HD.

Heres hoping it isn't a 360 exclusive.

KoiDrake · **Reply #16 on:** April 12, 2010, 04:20:45 AM

The world needs more BoF

You should be telling that to these no name blogs like GoFanboy. Again, a blog created a mere 4 months ago should not be trusted as a worthwhile source. They're only doing [parasitic bomb] like this for hits. And the more you help spread this stuff spread around, the more you're only helping them.

Then again, maybe Capcom will take a hint from the attention the article is getting...

VixyNyan · **Reply #20 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:12:45 PM

A new Breath of Fire is finally coming after we as fans have waited for years to happen~

And the latest one happens to come out for.... PC, smart phones and tablets.

I have to agree with PervyMan Blues. I'm not quite convinced, that this is official. $:\$

Mirby · **Reply #23 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:31:05 PM

nope, this is (sadly) official

and just another example in a long line of examples that capcom does not know how to treat their franchises properly.

Mr. Haxwell · **Reply #24 on:** August 01, 2013, 05:36:43 PM

So it's either not going to see the day of light, or it ends up being a shitty game, one way or another.
