Square Enix will release a version of its Final Fantasy III role-playing game on the Ouya platform in time for its March 2013 launch, the publisher said Tuesday.
The Ouya game will be based on the 3-D remake of Final Fantasy III originally released for the Nintendo DS platform in 2006, which featured a complete overhaul of its graphics and many gameplay elements. Square Enix has since ported the game to iOS and Android and will bring it to Sony's portable PSP this year.
Ouya's version of Final Fantasy III will feature graphical upgrades over the mobile games, the hardware maker said on Tuesday.
The $99, Android-based television game platform is currently in the midst of a Kickstarter fundraising drive nearing the $6 million mark. Its maker plans to release the device, which will only play downloadable games, in March. On Friday, Ouya said that the streaming games service OnLive would be available through the new machine.
