Square Enix has today announced the autumn 2008 European release of Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo’s Dungeon. The game stars Chocobo and friends and is being developed exclusively for Wii.

Chocobo and Cid are magically transported to a mysterious town in which a bell is wiping the memories of the townspeople. One day, a strange boy named Raffaello arrives and creates dungeons of memories to help the townspeople remember who they are. It’s up to Chocobo to journey through the dungeons and retrieve everyone’s memories.

Throughout Chocobo’s adventure the loveable character will take on famous job classes from the Final Fantasy franchise, including black mage, knight and scholar. Players will unlock more jobs as they progress.

“Chocobo has been a firm favourite with Final Fantasy fans for years, and players will be able to see him take centre stage and come to life in his very own adventure,” said John Yamamoto, president and chief executive officer of Square Enix Ltd.

In addition to the single-player adventure, players will be able to duel against friends in a card battle mode using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Mini-games will also be accessible from the Mog House.

Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo’s Dungeon is scheduled for release across Europe and PAL territories this autumn.
