According to a post on 2ch, Final Fantasy XIII will be released in Japan in winter 2009. The release date is said to be shown at the end of the Final Fantasy XIII playable demo included on the Blu-ray release of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete.

The post-demo message reportedly states: “Thank You For Playing! Coming Winter 2009”.

While unconfirmed by Square Enix, if true this does present the Japanese release of Final Fantasy XIII with a firm release window.

The game will be released in Japan only on PS3, while PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will be released in western territories after April 2010.
