XSEED's Twitter has been alive with hints about upcoming RPGs. The first being "What the heck kinda nickname for an RPG gang boss is "Spinach Fiend"...? The Japanese have a very strange sense of humor. It's one of our secret unannounced games. Can you guess what it might be?"" This was countered by a poster on NeoGAF stating that "Spinach" is the nickname of a gang boss in Legend of Heroes: Sora no Kiseki.
This Twitter talk ties into the fact that XSEED Games is now listed as a partner on Falcom's official website. So as luck would have it, RPGamer has uncovered a subtitle, Road to the Sky, that is for a mystery RPG localization project. Since Hardcore Gaming 101 loosely translates the Sora no Kiseki subtitle as Wagon Tracks of the Skies, so it wouldn't be too far off to say that these two could linked.
So will XSEED Games be announcing some Falcom PSP RPGs soon? It sure looks like it. Other sites have hinted at Ys Seven coming over, so that combined with our Road to the Sky uncovering seems as if all signs are pointing to Falcom. We've contacted XSEED for comment and will let you know what we hear.
