Are you itching to get your hands on the much anticipated (
and highly controversial)
Final Fantasy XIII, yet you're not hip enough to get invited to Square Enix's exclusive soirees? If you live in Japan, your first chance to overcome your wicked
triskaidekaphobia will come in the form of a FFXIII demo, packaged with the Blu-ray directors cut of the CGI feature film,
Final Fantasy: Advent Children. You know, the
Buscemi-less CGI
Final Fantasy movie.
Square Enix revealed both film (titled
Advent Children Complete) and demo
at their DKΣ3713 event, with a Japanese release date of March 2009. The demo will also include video previews of
Final Fantasy Agito XIII and
Versus XIII (which they took care to mention is
still a PS3 exclusive). Squeenix also announced a new PS3 SKU that will include the Blu-ray directors cut. What they didn't announce, however, was the American release date of the film -- and whether the demo and bundle will even make it to American shores.
