Final Fantasty XIII Western Release March 2010?

[Gingerbread Lesbian]

Although the Final Fantasy XIII Premiere was last week, Gametrailers has just uploaded footage of the announcements made at the event. Almost all of the information shown in the videos was covered by the livebloggers at the event but they serve as official confirmation.

One of the major announcements Kitase confirms in the video is that Final Fantasy XIII should hopefully be released overseas 3 months after the Japanese release. They don't mention specifically which region they mean but we should expect to see it released outside of Japan in March 2010. This upgrades the liveblogger's impression that it was coming out 6-8 months from now to a more specific timeframe.

Wow these videos are very interesting! I watched them all and I can See that Square Enix really loves everything they do. Also the XIII elixirs look really good! So the bundle is ps3 slim with XIII? Still 360 for me.

March 2010?

I will not get too excited, I will not get too excited, I will not get too excited...

But that could be very good. I complained earlier about an April date because it's too close to exams for me, but March would either be right before, during, or right after spring break. Much better chances for me to get some serious playing time in!

Wow, another bundle pack that I will have to save up for! *I wish I wasn't so broooke*

I want those Elixer's so bad.

Not to drink! Just for decoration! XD

I'm happier that they aren't being so vague with the release dates as much anymore. At least now I know what half of the year to hopefully expect the game.
