Microsoft stunned the world when they announced that Final Fantasy XIII would be making its way to their Xbox 360. During Square Enix E3 press conference they clarified a few details. Square Enix exec Shinji Hashimoto said:
I think you are right [in assuming that (the Xbox 360 version) is not coming out in Japan.]” It will only appear on Xbox 360 in English-speaking territories.
So that means FFXIII is exclusive to the Playstation 3 in Japan – where the series is most popular. It seems that FFXIII will be released on the Xbox 360 elsewhere along with the Playstation 3 version.
Not only that but Final Fantasy XIII will be released in Japan first before reaching English speaking territories.
Hashimoto says that the Xbox 360’s large install base in English territories is what led to the decision to make the game multiplatform. Because the decision was recent, there’s no way of estimating how many discs the Xbox 360 version will be
Final Fantasy XIII Versus – another Final Fantasy game is exclusive to the Playstation 3.
