A majority of the trailer is what was showcased at Jump Festa and subsequently captured by a cell-phone.

Oh my...they're already running FFXIII PS3 ads in Japan, despite reports that the game is still in early stages of development thanks in no small part to the White Engine.

Square Enix isn't wasting any time buckling up for the ride that will be remembered as 2007! The trailer's dialogue is entirely Japanese, but don't let that distract your from the tantalizingly epic graphics and in-game demos towards the end. Hopefully the Lion War will see a 2007 release!
