  • Agni’s Philosophy – A Final Fantasy-inspired Tech Demo From Square Enix

    A Final Fantasy-inspired tech demo called “Agni’s Philosophy” was released by Square Enix today, in order to introduce it’s next generation engine called the Luminous Engine. The engine is in development within Square Enix.

    According to Square Enix, the engine is able to portray high quality “real time computer graphics,” at the same level as “pre-rendered computer graphics,”.

    Final Fantasy Versus XIII is also supposedly using the Engine’s lighting assets along with the Crystal Tools engine acting as its base.

  • Square Enix Rep: “Something Different” For Agni’s Philosophy Coming Next Year

    Talking with FF Dream Square Enix worldwide technology director Julien Merceron teased new development for the Luminous Studio tech demo or Agni’s Philosophy as its more commonly known.

    So, around June of next year, there will indeed be something different around Agni’s Philosophy, which will be presented on, perhaps, different platforms than those which have been used before,

    By June I bet he’s talking about E3, I mean it debuted there right? When asked what platforms they have Agni’s Philosophy running on he replied: “I can tell you that it will not run only on PC!”. And I’m pretty sure that means next gen, after all the Luminous Engine is for Square’s next gen games.

    Also Sony and Microsoft are expected to reveal their next generation consoles by E3 so it’ll be the perfect time for Square to announce what they have in store.

    We’re still not sure if Square has turned Agni’s Philosophy into a full blown game but guess we’ll know more next year.
