Interviewee(s): Motomu Toriyama and Yoshinori Kitase
Interviewer(s): Final Fantasy Universe
Date: January 2010
Key Information: By January 2010, according to Motomu Toriyama and Yoshinori Kitase, Final Fantasy XV was not in development.
FFU: Is Final Fantasy XV already in development?
Motomu Toriyama and Yoshinori Kitase: (much laughter) No!
FFU: Are there any plans to end the Final Fantasy series?
Yoshinori Kitase: No
FFU: In the near future (the next 3-5 years), can we expect a German-dubbed Final Fantasy (Final Fantasy XV or even Final Fantasy Versus XIII)?
Motomu Toriyama: We are thinking about it. The Japanese audio track took a year, and the English 3 months. Including the German language would probably take about 3 months too long. Overseas synchronizations take 2-3 months. This means, in terms of extra time costs from synchronizations, it depends on the sales in Germany.
