Chocobo and his friends will come to PAL territories this fall, just in time for the holiday buying spree - all thanks to Square Enix Europe. Fully named Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's
Dungeon, the game will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Wii console and, as you might have heard, it will bring a bit of a twist to what people know as a Final Fantasy game.

Although the developers promise Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon will be fit for all ages, the kids will definitely be the ones who will appreciate this title the most, thanks to its adorable characters and, of course, the intuitive motion sensitive controls. Also, the release will bring players the chance to take on job classes from the "senior" Final Fantasy franchise - black mage, knight, and scholar, with the possibility to unlock more classes throughout the game.

John Yamamoto, president and CEO of Square Enix comments, "Chocobo has been a firm favourite with Final Fantasy fans for years, and players will be able to see him take center stage and come to life in his very own adventure. Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon will appeal to fans of the Final Fantasy series along with younger Nintendo Wii owners looking for an engrossing adventure".

The story follows the treasure hunters Chocobo and Cid who are magically transported to a mysterious town where people's memories disappear every time the clock tower rings its bell. One day, a strange boy named Raffaello creates dungeons and puts all the memories of the inhabitants there, trying to save them from being lost. As you can probably imagine, people can't live with no memories at all, so it's up to Chocobo to journey through the ever-changing dungeons and retrieve everyone's memories.

When it comes to gameplay, we should expect some arcade-like mini-games along the way, since we're talking about a Wii title, but we can also hope for a bit of depth, too, just as in any Final Fantasy title. Everything, as we have already said, sometime during this fall.
