There were the faintest of rumblings about this a couple of months ago, but now that GRIN are officially out of business, it can now come to light that they'd been working on...a Final Fantasy game.
Professional resume snoop superannuation has uncovered some concept art and CV listings for a game code-named "Fortress", which we're all but certain is the Final Fantasy (looks FFXII_related) action game spinoff we'd been told by former employees GRIN Stockholm had been working on from the time principal development on Bionic Commando wound up to the time they were shut down.
Say what you will about GRIN's track record of late, this would have been a blast to get a better look at.
I sure hope either the new studio formed from former GRIN members, or another competent studio can pick this up... Would have been great to see Ivalice again and the art looks amazing.
 
I never really cared for anything GRIN put out, but the idea of a western studio doing a Final Fantasy game is rather intriguing. The concept art looks very nice. Pity that they went under.

Who the shitting hell are GRIN? I'd rather not have had them doing anything related to Final Fantasy, the concept art is fantastic yes, but it looks more like LoTR style than anything. Plus I'm sure plenty of games have had great concept art but shit games >_>
 
Hard to say whatever it is good or bad.
Never heard of GRIN, so maybe the game would have end as sh!t anyway, and I don't want to hate FFs.
On the other hand, having nother FF could be nice.

It looks nice though.
