An EA employee over on the Neogaf forums are reporting a number of rumors regarding Final Fantasy XIII. EA and Square Enix have a good relationship so chances are these rumors are true. Final Fantasy XIII Versus has been rumoured to be put on hold, maybe the following rumors are true to put FFXIII into full production.
Final Fantasy XIII will apprently be released in Japan December 2008. Also there could be a playable demo at this years TGS.
- “FF13 this December in japan.”
- “Mark my words. FF13 this December in japan. Playable demo this year at TGS(which I am going too) and playable demo for japan right before release.”
- “This game will not have a WW release due to localization issues. It will hit japan first then NA/ EU the following year but within the fiscal.”
- “It could but the impact of the game will not be as huge. The game must hit japan this xmas to keep the current interest in Japan. This is the reason why SE will own this TGS.”
This is pretty exciting news for us Playstation 3 owners and RPG lovers. I hope all this is true.

This article is bullshit. What have EA got to do with Square?
What, you mean you don’t know? Lemme copy-paste this paragraph from Wikipedia for you:
“Square Electronic Arts L.L.C., also known as Square EA, was a joint venture between console video game developers Square and Electronic Arts. Announced on April 27, 1998, Square EA was based in Costa Mesa, California and operated under the supervision of Square president and CEO Jun Iwasaki, and was responsible for publishing and marketing all games produced by Square in North America. Conversely, Electronic Arts Square, K.K., formed at the same time and based in Japan, was responsible for publishing and marketing games produced by Electronic Arts in Asia. Under the terms of the agreement, Electronic Arts owned 30 percent of Square EA, and Square owned 30 percent of EA Square.
Square EA proved to be very successful, and during its five years of existence released a higher proportion of localized Square titles to the American market than ever before. EA Square, on the other hand, was somewhat less successful, and struggled to make an impact on the Asian videogame market, which has been traditionally difficult for American game developers to break into.
Following the announcement of the merger between Square and former competitor Enix in 2003, Square purchased back Electronic Arts’ stake in Square EA, and folded it back into Square Soft, Inc., its North American subsidiary, which was subsequently renamed Square Enix U.S.A., Inc. (now Square Enix, Inc.) and continues to publish Square Enix’s titles in North America.”
So does that answer your question? Please, keep the profanity to a minimum and do some research.
Thank you, Ganaesh.
This man’s credibility would be a bit more than zero if his grammar wasn’t equivalent to an undereducated 14 year old’s. I should add that EA is no longer heavily involved with Square Enix, and that Square Enix released an official statement denying the rumours of Final Fantasy Versus XIII being put on hold. The sad thing about this article is that it’s been reported on Japanese news blogs – more rumour smashing for Square Enix, I guess. Try to gain some reporting integrity.
I don’t get it ff13 is supposed to be out in 2020. We waited 4 years for 12 and now we have 2 games coming out. On a serious note square should’ve put the clamp down on level 5 to make so4 multi. Once i get so4 on ps3 then fair is all console war in.
Tis bullshit. Stop fucking with us. It’s driving us insane.
Less of the language.
