Square Enix has confirmed the final release date for the Japanese version of Final Fantasy XIII is December 17th 2009. Yoichi Wada took to the stage earlier today at the Final Fantasy XIII Premiere Party over in Japan and announced that the game would debut on December 17th 2009 for ¥9250, roughly $100 / £60 / €70.

Despite the Final Fantasy XIII Premiere Party being an event dedicated to the Japanese side of Final Fantasy XIII, Yoshinori Kitase said that the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game would debut simultaneously in the West “in six to eight months.”
