It seems Square Enix has abandoned the company’s previously announced plans for the PC and PS3 versions of their upcoming mmorpg, Final Fantasy XIV, to both release simultaneously. Today it was announced that the PS3 version of upcoming mmorpg will release sometime in March 2011, six months after the PC version which is releasing this September.
That’s a little disappointing but definitely no reason for fans not to celebrate.
On September 30th Final Fantasy XIV will launch worldwide with a Collector’s Edition that’s scheduled to hit European retailers on September 22nd. Square Enix also revealed the how much gamers can expect to pay to play FFXIV.

FFXIV will require $12.99/£8.99/€12.99, a month and an additional $3.00/£2.10/€3.00 per character a month (with up to a maximum of eight characters able to be registered on one account).
Final Fantasy XIV executive producer Hiromichi Tanaka:
“This September, players around the world will join together to explore the fascinating and exciting realm of Eorzea. We’re presenting players with a new style of online gameplay, that we know will please avid fans of online games, but welcome more casual gamers as well with the variety of gameplay and story-driven content.”
