Square Enix hosted the direct-styled Square Enix Presents event today and it featured a whole slew of information on their upcoming titles, including a brand-new game!
What Was Announced?
In case you weren’t already inundated with direct-style videos, Square Enix has you covered. Their event, which was teased a few weeks back, showcased all their upcoming projects, as well as information on current games. While it was no PlayStation Indies event, nor could it muster the same hype as the recent State of Play, Nintendo Direct and Pokémon Presents, it did put on a decent show. We got the reveal of an all-new Square Enix game, as well as information about a so-far mysterious project!
But of course, you’re likely still catching up on the many events that preceded this one! So, to keep things nice and simple for you, I’ve compiled a list of everything that was announced at the Square Enix Presents event. From trailers to teasers, this list will keep you up to date on everything Square Enix. So, as always, sit back and relax, and read on! Here’s everything that was announced at the Square Enix Presents event:

There was a surprising amount of content revealed at this event, more so than I was expecting.
