LOS ANGELES (May 24, 2007) &mdash Square Enix, Inc., the publisher of Square Enix™ interactive entertainment products in North America, announced today the upcoming release of INFINITE UNDISCOVERY™ for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft.

INFINITE UNDISCOVERY is the newest fantasy RPG developed by tri-Ace Inc. (STAR OCEAN®, VALKYRIE PROFILE®) for next-generation hardware. Players will be drawn into a real-time world woven of countless threads where their choices will spin untold discoveries. This title, combining the talents of both Square Enix and tri-Ace, will be an unforgettable experience.

STORY
Long ago, when the world was at peace and magic was yet unknown to man, the beautiful isle of Illusia floated in the center of the Inner Sea. Over the island towered the Great Tree, the source of all life and creation. There it had stood since the dawn of the world, but over time, the tree gradually turned to stone and slept as though death had at last arrived.

So begins the story of how a boy came to wield a sacred sword and how a maiden became a goddess, entwining the fate of spirits, mortals, and the entire world into a captivating tale of hope and despair.

FEATURES

Cinematic production values are amplified by a gripping opening theme composed by Grammy and Academy Award winner Ryuichi Sakamoto, and a sweeping score from series composer Kenji Ito

Instant accessibility makes the game fun and intuitive for a wide variety of gamers – simple controls and quick "pick-up-and-play" mechanics make the game fun for long-time fans and newcomers to the franchise

Witness a beautiful lighting system that softens the game world, exuding a feeling of warmth and subtlety that cascades through trees, over the hills and onto the elements of vividly detailed landscapes fans have come to expect from the MANA series

Different weapons and gameplay mechanics allow multiple ways to approach enemies – attack head-on with the sword, use the slingshot from afar or manipulate the environment with a whip to cause a fantastic avalanche of boulders – guaranteeing no two adventures are the same!

For a limited time and while supplies last, the Breath of MANA™ music sampler disc will be available at Amazon.com, Game Crazy, GameStop, and EB Games as a gift with the purchase of DAWN of MANA.
