New York City earlier announced this week that October 11th, 2006 will be "Final Fantasy XII Day," a huge event to commemorate the release of one of the most eagerly anticipated Final Fantasy games in recent history. As well, organizers are holding a cosplay contest, where participants dress up as their favorite characters from the game with the chance of winning a trip to New York themselves.
“Square Enix is thrilled to be partnering with DigitalLife to debut the market-ready version of Final Fantasy XII,” said Daishiro Okada, President and COO of Square Enix, Inc. “DigitalLife’s gaming pavilion is a great venue to introduce Final Fantasy XII, especially since it appeals to casual gamers in addition to our core fans. Final Fantasy XII Day is the perfect way to celebrate this remarkable game, and we are extremely honored to have a declaration from New York City.”
The series has sold roughly 68 million copies worldwide.
Final Fantasy XII is set to debut on Halloween, 2006.
