The Final Fantasy XIII Blu-Ray demo was released in Japan a few weeks ago, bundled with the the film Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete. Unfortunately, there are no plans for a release outside of Japan, the game’s producer Yoshinori Kitase has told VideoGamer.com. Kitase did suggest a downloadable demo, saying “We hear that the demo version normally means something that you can download in the West, so that is a possibility.”
Final Fantasy XIII is should arrive on PlayStation 3 in Japan later this year, with Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions due in Europe and North America no earlier than April 2010.
