Japanese role-playing game fans who own an Xbox One may not be left wanting forever, as Microsoft's Xbox boss Phil Spencer assures fans that JRPGs are in the console's future.

A fan recently asked Spencer on Twitter if Xbox One owners can expect JRPGs in the future along the lines of Blue Dragon or Lost Odyssey. Spencer's response was quite straightforward: "You will see JRPGs on Xbox One," he said.

Though nothing is locked down at the moment, it sounds like the new JRPGs for Xbox One aren't coming from noted Japanese studio Mistwalker. Spencer added that he has not spoken with Mistwalker founder and Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi or anyone from the team there for some time.

Bringing more JRPGs to Xbox One is a popular topic on the Xbox Feedback site, attracting close to 500 votes. For his part, Spencer said in previous interviews that Japan is a "soulful" place for games, and one that is "critical" for Microsoft to support.

The Xbox One launched in Japan in September, though system sales aren't very strong there.
