Appearing at this week's Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, California, Hironobu Sakaguchi revealed the release dates for his two Xbox 360 RPGs, Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey. The former, which has been available in Japan since last December, will go on sale in the US in August. For the latter, Sakaguchi is aiming for a simultaneous December release in the US and Japan.

On the topic of PlayStation 3, Sakaguchi would only say "it's difficult" to work on the platform. While his company is apparently not working on any projects for the platform right now, Mistwalker has already conducted tests with Sony Computer Entertainment's next-gen platform.
