Final Fantasy XIII Demo May Be Sold Separately


The Final Fantasy XIII demo to be packaged with the upcoming Blu-ray version of Advent Children Complete may be available separately after the film's release, according to an interview with Testuya Nomura (translated by FinalFantasyXIII.net). The upcoming demo, which gives players a 90 minute taste of the beginning of the game, may be distributed by a rather unconventional approach, though: it may be sold.

Yes, while demos have long been given away for free, Square Enix may considering selling the demo at a slight premium. This is unheard of, but considering the incredible demand for this hotly anticipated title, we wouldn't be surprised to see thousands of fans forking over some dough to get an early taste of the game. Hopefully, distribution of the demo outside of Japan will be a bit more ... free.
