Xbox 360 owners will soon be able to bring the MMORPG world of Final Fantasy to life on their next-gen consoles.
Square Enix announced yesterday it would simultaneously launch Final Fantasy XI for the Xbox 360 along with the expansion pack Treasures of Aht Urhgan on April 18 in North America. The game will be available in Europe and Japan on April 20.
The release means that Xbox 360 owning gamers will be able to play with their friends who use other platforms – the PlayStation 2 and PCs – to connect to the game. An estimated 500,000 players are subscribed currently in North America, Europe and Japan combined. The launch will no doubt bring that number higher.
This third expansion will be sold separately for PlayStation 2 and Windows users for about $29.99. Xbox 360 users will get a package that includes all three expansions – Chains of Promathia, Rise of the Zilart and Treasures of Aht Urhgan – along with the main game to allow them to play for about $49.99. Players will be subject to a monthly fee over and above Xbox Live.
