I know you thought the deluge of League of Legends clones from big publishers was over, but you thought wrong.

If Flame x Blaze looks familiar, it's probably because you played the designers previous game The World Ends With You.

Square Enix is working on Flame x Blaze, a new multiplayer online arena battler for smartphones and tablets. It’s heading into a testing phase soon. Like popular mobile multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) Vainglory, it features 3-on-3 matches and a large number of characters with different abilities. A beta will begin in Japan this winter, and Square Enix is promising to release it in North America soon after that. The MOBA genre is one of the biggest in the world thanks to games like League of Legends, and Flame x Blaze is Square Enix’s attempt to capture some of that revenue from the $36.6 billion mobile gaming market.
