Final Fantasy XIII 360 May Only Have English Voices

An interview with Square-Enix's Yoshinori Kitase and Takeshi Arakawa has led to doubt that the Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XIII will feature a Japanese voice track.

"Obviously, when we talk about XIII it's for PS3 and Xbox," said Kitase, to IGN. "With PS3 being on Blu-Ray there would be enough memory, but on Xbox probably not. At the moment we're thinking of releasing the voice in English only."

Kitase added, "Are there many people who would like to play with Japanese voices?"

We suspect the legions of fans out there would like it as a bonus if nothing else, yes.

Final Fantasy XIII is going to be huge either way, though. The recently-released Final Fantasy sales figures were rather staggering.
