They haven't done a press release for the collector's edition just yet. Expect one next week. 1 Nobody reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sora96 17,256 Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) The Australian distributor for Square Enix video games has re-confirmed the Final Fantasy Explorers collector's edition is exclusive to Square Enix's Online Store. And yes, that means it's also exclusive to North America & Europe. Edited November 13, 2015 by Sora96 1 WakelessDream reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted November 14, 2015 Square Enix has confirmed in-game content will be exclusive to the collector's edition of Final Fantasy Explorers which is also exclusive to the online store which can only be purchased through in North America & Europe. In other words, multiple countries can not access the content in literally any way. Not even DLC. I can further confirm now that the game will NOT be available in German, Italian or Spanish. They won't be releasing the 3DS port of FF1 either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Setrex 1,031 Posted January 26, 2016 Meghan Sullivan has had some incredibly dodgy reviews (*cough* Steins;Gate *cough*) for IGN and that review is no different. Her tone throughout it is grating to listen to. I'm glad the dislike bar is visible on that video. The girl really can't review and she's not the only one at IGN either.

Her review for X/X-2 HD was great imo but I'm bias there. But I agree her review here was bad. Edited January 26, 2016 by Sora96 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
