Speaking to VG247, Kitase remarked that “The Japanese version’s going to come out in winter this year,” adding, “And we’ve already started localising the game for overseas versions. So we’re hoping to release it sometime rather soon after the Japanese release, but we can’t specify an exact time.” He did, however, confirm that an international release will happen within 2011. Also, Kitase’s comment regarding localization having already begun is pretty much in line with the faster turn-around Square-Enix has been targeting for global availability of its games in recent years.
We’ll have a more specific — hopefully international — release date when it’s announced, after which we fully expect GameStop to begin offering party hats and noisemakers as pre-order incentives.
