There's still no indication that we're likely to get a mobile version of Final Fantasy VII any time soon, but we are going to get a piece of it. Remember the motorcycle combat mini-game that you could find in the Gold Saucer amusement location? According to the latest issue of Famitsu (and subsequently reported by Siliconera,) Square Enix and CyberConnect2 will be releasing a mobi le version of the game this Fall in Japan, dubbed Final Fantasy VII G-Bike.
The game tweaks the original in a number of ways, with players now able to both jump and slide the bike as they fight off Shinra bikers. Also, there will apparently be multiple bikes for you to choose from, and each can be customized using Materia.
If successful, it seems that this may be the first of several Gold Saucer themed mini-games that Square Enix is planning for iOS and Android. Perhaps the rock, paper, scissors-like 3D Battler? Or Chocobo Racing? or even the oft-rumored snowboarding game?
(Note: The screen shot is from Final Fantasy VII, not from the mobile version.)
Put the internet to work for you.
