Launching simultaneously with
Final Fantasy XIII in the US is a limited edition 250GB Xbox 360 console. Included in the box is a copy of the game, two wireless controllers, a headset, a
FF-branded hard drive, and "exclusive downloadable avatar items" -- perhaps something to go with your
pet Chocobo. All of this will be packaged together for $399, according to
Major Nelson.
Microsoft is trying to make sure
Final Fantasy fans from the PS2 generation will choose Xbox 360 as their console of choice. The carefully worded
press release notes that this is "the only console outside of Japan to be bundled with the game." In other words, don't expect the
limited edition PS3 to make its way Stateside. Ever.
In addition, Microsoft also plans to release a
Final Fantasy XIII faceplate designed by Tetsuya Nomura and not included with the special edition bundle. The press release doesn't explain exactly how to get one, only stating that a "very limited number" will be available "promotionally in fixed quantities across select retailers in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand."
Final Fantasy XIII Special Edition Xbox 360 Bundle includes 250GB hard drive, will cost $399 originally appeared on Joystiq on Thu, 11 Feb 2010 17:18:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
