IMAGINARY RANGE NOW AVAILABLE FOR FREE (IOS)

Square Enix, Ltd. announced today that Imaginary Range™, a new type of entertainment app that lets users play games as they read through a digital comic, is now available to download for free from the Apple® Store for iPhone®, iPod touch®, and iPad® platforms.

Imaginary Range is a full-color comic that includes a selection of mini-games inserted within the flow of the plot, immersing gamers alongside the cast as they proceed through the story. The project was overseen by Motomu Toriyama, director of FINAL FANTASY® XIII, with Souki Tsukishima, author of the novel Emeth: Ningyo-tsukai no Shima, who wrote the story. The art was handled by Toshiyuki Itahana, character designer for the FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES® series.

Set in France as it is attacked by an enigmatic menace, the comic features a cast that can freely jump between reality and the world of dreams.

Imaginary Range is a free app available now for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. A future version for Android-compatible devices is slated for release later this year.
