The World Ends With You


Square Enix’s recent track record in the last 5 years can be described with one word. “Iffy”. They’ve published some well received titles such as 2010’s cult hit “Nier” and the surefire hit “Dragon Quest IX” but the lukewarm reception to the long awaited “Final Fantasy XIII” and the long delayed “3rd Birthday” hurt the company’s reputation. And that’s without mentioning the numerous controversies about their DLC practices and perceived lack of innovation. Yet, in every argument about Square Enix, one game is always brought up. And that game is “The World Ends With You”.
