FINAL FANTASY XIII on Store Shelves Today, Includes PS3 Exclusive Bonus Offer for FINAL FANTASY XIV
The FINAL FANTASY franchise has long been synonymous with the PlayStation brand – who could forget FINAL FANTASY VII on PSone and FINAL FANTASY X proved to be a landmark achievement when it launched on PS2. And, now we have the highly-anticipated FINAL FANTASY XIII for PlayStation 3 hitting store shelves today.
For those of you headed out to pick up your copy, we’re happy to announce that FINAL FANTASY XIII for PS3 offers an exclusive bonus offer for FINAL FANTASY XIV. Some of you may remember the announcement we made at our E3 press conference last June, but just a reminder that PS3 will be the only console you’ll be able to play FINAL FANTASY XIV when it launches in 2010.
Players who purchase a copy of FINAL FANTASY XIII for PS3 will receive a FINAL FANTASY XIV secret in-game item and be able to enter for a potential opportunity to become a beta tester for FINAL FANTASY XIV for PS3.
Included inside copies of the initial production run of FINAL FANTASY XIII for PS3 are Campaign Codes printed on a special SQUARE ENIX MEMBERS Point Card. Players can register at SQUARE ENIX MEMBERS and receive a code to unlock the special FINAL FANTASY XIV limited offer.
For additional details on FINAL FANTASY XIV, check out the official website and be sure to stay tuned to the PlayStation Blog for much more to come on the game this year.

Early Blog post. Fnally this game releases! I’ve already seen people on my friend list playing this game since last week.
Wow so you waited for game to get released to announce this? Talk about bad marketing move. You let MS gain ground on you, again! With their exclusive ads.
PS3 has superior version + this = should have been promoted more, this is more or less PS3 exclusive.
Thanks for giving this to us Square-Enix. I was a bit angry when I heard this was included in the JP release, but I’m glad your sharing the love with NA too.
Hold on, I already signed up for the beta months ago. If I use this code that came inside of the box, will it erase my previous beta registration/chances and start all over again?
^ You can’t copy paste as said earlier.
Enter manually, but it sounds like you’re doing that… Luckily I had no 0’s or O’s in my code hehe.
Anybody’s registration code not working? Mine doesn’t seem to go through. It looks like I am entering my code correctly but one digit seems questionable, almost looks like a diamond. I assumed this is a 0 (zero).
I think they are kidding about FF being home on the PS. Try Nintendo. But now we have it on PS3 and 360, which is good too. I picked the game up, and it’s not bad.
Final Fantasy 13 sucks. That’s what happens when games go multiplat & I bet you Square-Enix will sell the content they cut out back to you. They didn’t even release the demo except in Japan because they said it wouldn’t be “fair” to the people who have a last gen console that runs this game at 576p. S-E hasn’t made a good game since they were Squaresoft. I won’t be supporting that garbage company (Square-Enix) ever again. All they did was screw over PS3 owners ALL this gen. I hope everyone getting the 576p version pirates it on the other console. I’m sure they’ll screw over PS3 owners some more in the future because of piss poor management. I won’t even bother getting this garbage pre-owned (even after a big price drop). Square-Enix is just a [DELETED] company that makes [DELETED] games.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII? They won’t do anything more until they’re ready to release gameplay footage.
For us, North American gamers, we need Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep first.
