When Square Enix unveiled The Last Remnant, it was a multiplatform game with a planned worldwide release. Square Enix is sticking to their plan, but it’s now a timed Xbox 360 exclusive. The internally developed game will be available worldwide (read: Japan, North America, and Europe) this winter. The worldwide release may be similar to Infinite Undiscovery, which comes out in North America first on September 2. Europe gets it on September 5, and Japan/Asia gets it on September 11.
The official Last Remnant site has been updated to reflect the game will only come to the Xbox 360 this winter, and does not mention a release window for the PlayStation 3 version. The most recent trailer is below and it has the same “for Xbox 360” text the Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope trailer has.

BTW, I hope S-E would do a Jpn track for Last Remnant even if it’s a simultaneous release. At least I know Infinite Undiscovery does, so that’s a good thing.
is it just me or does whats-his-name-again look a lot darker and vicious in that screenshot of the site?
glad to finally hear some news about it though, I’ve been checking the site regulary but saw no updates what so ever.
That’s typical of MS. The only way they can get Japanese games is they have to throw their money around. Japanese gamers prefer the Wii and the PS3. And, especially the DS and PSP. They don’t like the 360. So, MS is trying to change that by pouring money on a company like Square-Enix. Funny, though how they didn’t get FFXIII in Japan for 360.
