Rumour: Square Enix's ticking timer is set to reveal an iOS version of The World Ends With You

You might remember that a few days ago Square Enix revealed a cryptic countdown that looked like it had something to do with the Gold Award-winning DS RPG The World Ends With You.

But, while the clock is still counting down, it looks like Squeenix may have shown its hand prematurely by unintentionally revealing that there's going to be an iOS version of the original. So, not the long-rumoured sequel we'd all been hoping for, after all.

A listing on the Final Fantasy creator's online shop, spotted by Andriasang, includes reference to a new soundtrack CD that features remixed songs created especially for an upcoming iOS version.

Unsurprisingly, while the listing for the new CD remains live, all mention of an iOS version of the game has been expunged.

Whatever the countdown is set to reveal, we should all know in about two and a half days' time, when that ever-ticking clock finally hits zero.
