Another Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles scan emerges
And with it comes the juicy details. RPG site has some translated information from the scan, and we've scavenged the best bits here for you: The director of the game is Mitsuru Kamiyama, a coder for the original Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles (nice promotion!), and Toshiyuki Itahana, character designer for FFIX, will be reprising that role for this game. Single player mode requires the player to swap between characters ala Lego Star Wars. We just hope it's less buggy. Ring of Fates will feature some voice acting, but will not have a fully voiced script. Check out the new scan after the jump!

See, the PSP is getting a remake of Final Fantasy Tactics, while the DS (or GBA, it's unconfirmed which handheld the game will appear on at this time) will be receiving a true blue sequel in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2: The Sealed Black Book.Considering the recent release of Final Fantasy III, as well as Square's support of the DS with Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, not to mention the recent announcement of Dragon Quest IX being exclusive to the DS, we're banking on the game coming to the dual-screen handheld, as well.

And is it just us, or is that a really long name?We've got some scans after that jump that show off the game's look -- check 'em out.
