Self described “video game band”, Grasshopper Manufacture, redesigned their website. Not something that we would usually report, but there is a little change in the section that mentions their principle business partners. Square Enix is on the list.
With the exceptions of platform holders Microsoft and Sony, all of the other companies on the primary business partners list published a game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture. Companies like D3 Publisher that commissioned Grasshopper Manufacture for audio assistance are not listed as primary business partners.
Is this an early sign that Grasshopper Manufacture is developing a game for Square Enix?
