In the last few months, Square Enix has been pouring money - approximately $6 million total - into a mobile developer by the name of UIEvolution, a North America-based company. In this time period, Square Enix has released Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest for high-end iMode phones in Japan and a vertical scrolling shooter - Brave Shot - in America. Square Enix has also sold wallpapers and screensavers for these phones.
Europe has yet to see any of these new projects, but SE has expressed its desire to bring these services worldwide, and that the acquisition of UIEvolution is but one step in the right direction. Should any major developments occur, we will be sure to keep you posted.
