Crystal Bearers site bears new content
According to a translation from NeoGAFfer RPGn, Kawazu draws a line between the very first Final Fantasy and Crystal Bearers, saying that as he initially thought Final Fantasy was "the way you make an RPG." He hopes Crystal Bearers will end up being as iconic for Wii. Or something like that.
Along with the site announcement, Famitsu posted some gorgeous screens of the open-world-ish RPG.
