OMG you guys, I just hyperventilated reading the latest Team Asano news! 🤯 As a total HD-2D stan since Octopath Traveler, knowing they're dropping MULTIPLE projects this year has me spinning. Studio head Tomoya Asano teased "various things" coming in 2025 - and with Dragon Quest 1&2 HD-2D Remake already confirmed for early this year, we could be feasting on THREE more surprises! 🎮✨ That iconic pixel-meets-3D magic? It's about to bless our screens like never before.

🔮 Bravely Default 3: Basically Confirmed?!

Let's start with the juiciest tea! After Bravely Default 2's PC port success, those 2024 leaks about a new entry feel legit. I'm betting we'll see either:

  • Bravely Default 3 (full sequel!)

  • OR a Bravely Second-style spinoff

Either way, that job system + tactical combat deserves fresh content after 4 years!

🌌 Octopath Traveler 3 Tease Potential

Okay OT2 slayed - over 1M sales + award noms?! But since it dropped in 2023, a full sequel seems unlikely for 2025. Still... a reveal trailer? PLEASE! 🙏 Imagine new traveler stories with enhanced lighting like this concept:

⚔️ Triangle Strategy Sequel: Dark Horse Candidate

This one's for my tactics nerds! 🧠 The 2024 VR port means it's fresh in their minds. A sequel could:

  • Launch multi-platform

  • Include VR support

  • Expand branching narratives

After that killer political intrigue? Sign me UP!

🌈 Live A Live Sequel: 30-Year Dream?

The wildcard! 🃏 Their 2023 remake introduced this gem globally, and they've openly wanted to continue it. A sequel after 31 years? That'd break the JRPG timeline! Picture:

  • New historical eras

  • Crossover character arcs

  • That bonkers final act energy!
