Variants:
'''Logo''': We see the letters "SQUARE ENIX" in its original form quickly on a dark background.
*After the buyout of Eidos, Square Enix gained the studio in London, which logo appeared in the trailer for Just Cause 2.
*On Just Cause 3,the background is white and after about 6 seconds it zooms out revealing the logo is on a beach towel on a seat. The main character (Rico Rodriguez) Pulls the towel from behind him, revealing theAvalanche Softwarelogo.


FX/SFX: The letters forming.
'''Variants''':
* In the trailer for ''Just Cause 2'', the words "London Studios" are displayed below the Square Enix logo. Square Enix had acquired Eidos at that point, turning the latter into its European branch.
* On ''Just Cause 3'', the background is white and after about six seconds, it zooms out, revealing the logo on a beach towel on a seat. The main character (Rico Rodriguez) pulls the towel from behind him, revealing the [[Avalanche Software]] logo.


Music/Sounds: A piano note, and a quiet female voice whispering the company's name. Sometimes it omits the female's voice, or it's silent.
'''FX/SFX''': The letters forming.


Music/Sounds Variant: On Dissidia 012: Duodecim Final Fantasy, we hear a character from the game saying the company name. The character who says it depends on the date the game is played (EX: If the game is played the 7th of any month (like May 7th) we would hear Cloud Strife, Sephiroth, Tifa Lockheart, or Aerith Gainsborough (characters from Final Fantasy VII) do the voice over, or if the game is played on the 1st of any month, we would hear Warrior of Light or Garland (characters from Final Fantasy) do the voice over. It loops back to the 1st game after the 13th of any month).
'''Music/Sounds''': A piano note, and a quiet female voice whispering the company's name. Sometimes it omits the female's voice, or it's silent.


Availability: Uncommon. It's hardly seen on video games since the company's birth. Survives on video game trailers and advertisements. Kingdom Hearts II is the earliest known game to have used this at least once. It can be seen on latest released games, as The Last Remnant for PC and on the several new NDS games and on Dissidia: Final Fantasy for PSP. The silent version is more common than the sound version, however.
'''Music/Sounds Variant''': On ''Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy'', we hear a character from the game saying the company name. The character who says it depends on the date the game is played (for instance, if the game is played on the seventh day of any month (like May 7), we would hear Cloud Strife, Sephiroth, Tifa Lockheart, or Aerith Gainsborough (characters from ''Final Fantasy VII'') do the voice-over; if the game is instead played on the first of any month, we would hear the Warrior of Light or Garland (characters from the first ''Final Fantasy'' game) do the voice-over. It loops back to the first game after the 13th of any month.).
