Square Enix today announced the Square Enix Party 2007. The event is scheduled to take place in three halls of Chiba prefecture's Makuhari Messe convention center on May 12th and 13th. Square Enix won't be charging any entrance fees for the two-day event. No program has been announced so far, but if the 2005 edition of the event is any indication, one can expect live concerts, talk shows, trailer movies, and kiosks with playable versions of upcoming games.

The makers of Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest have yet to announce a list of titles set to be exhibited. That being, with at least 13 games scheduled to go on sale in Japan before the end of the year, there probably will be more than enough reasons for fans to head for Chiba come May.
