Release Dates Japan = 19 Feb 2009 US = 24 Feb 2009 EU = 24 Apr 2009 Related Links - Debut Trailer (Jp) - Star Ocean: The Last Hope Official Sites: Japan \| North America

Although beleive it or not there is still no confirmation on what system it will be on, or when it will be released. Click below to view each scan! Scan 1 \| Scan 2 \| Scan 3 Also, the promotional disk attached with Second Evolution did indeed feature a new trailer for Star Ocean 4, although in all honesty it's nothing more then an extension of the debut trailer, not much new to tell from it at all other then it takes place in Space Date 0010 (336 years before First Departure), and well it looks good.

I hope it's on PS2(most unlikely) since the platform is yet to be announced.

Star Ocean 4 committing to Xbox 360 convinced me to get one over a PS3.

bite my shiny metal- Posts: 419 Group: Admins Member #5 Joined: Jan 12, 2008 Gender Male	I found this about the battle system: Quote: The game will use the same real-time battle system as previous games in the series. There is a new Rush gauge. The Rush guage is a feature that allows the play to either have a pre-emptive strike against the enemy, or it will allow them to use a certain ability or a special attack. Each character will have their own unique Rush gauge status. Edited by Quark, Sep 24 2008, 09:08 PM.
