Square Enix has announced that the PlayStation 3 version of MMO Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn will release on August 27. The game will require a monthly subscription fee of £7.69/€10.99.

Gamers who pre-order A Realm Reborn will get early access to the realm of Eorzea, a Cait Sith Doll Minion, and a Mog Cap. If you want even more goodies, then the Collector’s Edition might be more your thing.
