It will feature a total of 20 characters, including the popular Cloud and Sephiroth, and is being developed by Square-Enix in conjunction with Visual Works. It is expected to be released in Japan at the end of 2005, with a US release to follow shortly after. No word on a European or Australian release has been made as yet.
