Sony Computer Entertainment Hong Kong wants to get players caught up on the “Lightning Saga” before Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII comes out next year.
Figures of Tifa with Red XIII and Tidus riding a Chocobo are coming in December too.
Square are including all thirteen mainline Final Fantasy games, each on its own disc.
Square Enix have opened a new teaser website for Final Fantasy XIII, titled “A Storm Gathers”.
Kitase said work on the project has just started. The project’s title will be officially announced on September 1st.
“We are also thinking that we will not do large-scale internal development any longer,” says Final Fantasy XIII director, Motomu Toriyama.
Initially, Square Enix simply wanted the Game Boy Advance version’s translation to be touched up for Final Fantasy IV DS. Eventually, it got a full rewrite.
Final Fantasy XIII-2 on the PlayStation 3 only sold 62.06% of the stock that Square Enix sent out.
The original Final Fantasy XIII, released in Japan on December 17th, 2009, sold 1,501,964 copies (on PlayStation 3) in its first week.
Amazon’s Black Friday specials are live and White Knight Chronicles II is on sale right now for $37.99 alongside Final Fantasy XIII which goes for $14.99.
Square Enix re-released the game as part of their Ultimate Hits line, which is Square Enix’s own “Greatest Hits” label for Japan. Sony Computer Entertainment Hong Kong followed suit and re-released their version Final Fantasy XIII too.
Final Fantasy XIII-2 is just six months away from release in Japan.
Square Enix is about to re-release Final Fantasy XIII… again. Ultimate Hits Final Fantasy XIII and Ultimate Hits International Final Fantasy XIII Platinum Collection (say that three times fast!) are scheduled to arrive in stores on July 21.
