In a ringing endorsement of the popularity and phenomenal demand for SquareSoft’s Final FantasyX, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) is to sell the critically acclaimed game as part of a PlayStation 2 bundle.
Final Fantasy X is exclusive to the PlayStation 2 platform and uses the powerful graphic and performance capabilities of the PlayStation 2 to take the Final Fantasy series to new highs of cinematic graphics, engrossing storylines and involving gameplay. The Final Fantasy X bundle will be released at the same time as the stand-alone game, on Friday 17 May in Australia and on Wednesday 29 May in many of the remaining PAL territories of Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
The Final Fantasy series has sold over 38 million copies worldwide and has been acclaimed by critics and gamers alike for pushing the boundaries of gameplay, graphics, sound, and story and setting a new standard for the role-playing games (RPG) genre. Final Fantasy X is already one of the biggest games to have been released so far on PlayStation 2, having sold over 7 million copies since its release earlier this year in Japan and the USA.
