Yasumi Matsuno joins Level-5

wow this article is old but Yasumi is the best developer

for me ever Thanks for giving us such an awesome game that's FFXII.

I wish he'll make another Vagrant Story game. I love Vagrant Story....

Awesome. Maybe Layton games will be out faster now.....

Awesome, can't wait to see more from him.

This is fantastic news. Only one sentence in this article that worries me: "He also hinted that his new title will cater to fans of his work, as well as by kids." I really appreciate the mature nature of Matsuno's games, but I'm sure the game will be good either way.

i hope he makes another Ogre Battle game........curious as to how Level 5 would handle that.

I hope we get to see some games from this

Matsuno joining Level-5? That's quite a combination.

Hey you havent finsh up ff15 Verus? But anyway gd luck make a great game with level5 show them how to do a better RPG since last great level5 series Dark Cloud

Whatever he does will be epic, especially being teamed with Level 5.

hmm sounds interesting i wonder what type of game it will be?

Level-5 > Squeenix

Level-5 was already loaded with talent and in many ways has replaced Square-Enix as the premiere Japanese RPG developer. This just puts another feather in their cap, and the combination of the two is very interesting.

I can't wait to see what he comes up with. I've been a fan of his since Tactics Ogre for the SNES. If the next game is half as good as Vagrant Story or FFT, it'd be quite awesome.

All I can say is wow. That is some talent Level 5 now has.

@FinalKloud: Agreed. The world needs another Dark Cloud game.

Awesome! This man has made some spectacular games(one being my favorite ever) and i can't wait to see what he puts out at Level-5! Best of luck to you Matsuno-san!

I would like to see a sequel to Tactics Ogre

Dark Cloud 3 please!

Sounds like a win for everybody... except Square.

i like the games level-5 has been putting out actually so i see this as a plus i have always in the past loved square games but they've fallen off the horse more and more lately because they aren't letting their people the freedoms in game making they use too just throwing money at a bad idea doesn't make it work so square has more than enough good people to make a great game if they ever manage to turn their current tread around lets see what he can do outside of that box^~^

There goes a possible Vagrant Story 2 and possible Tactics Ogre sequels.

"Do Vagrant Story 2! Just sayin'..." Would be nice, though he stated it won't be an extension of former work, so probably no. I'm glad to see though that they want to try something new. It's something the gaming world really needs, not another Thisgame 2, 3, 4, 5, or 102030450234

Very cool.

Do Vagrant Story 2! Just sayin'...
