Japanese Final Fantasy XIII Boxart Revealed

What appears to be the complete Japanese boxart for Final Fantasy XIII appears to have leaked onto the web with the final boxart being identical to the art shown next to a special edition console at TGS 2009.

While we're not certain this is the final art, we've fired off an email to Square Enix reps in both the US and Japan - and as soon as they answer we'll update this story. Stick up to date with our RSS Feed and Twitter!

If this is the final box art and not exclusive to the version of the game bundled with the Lightning Pink PS3 console it will be the first main FF to launch with any boxart other than the game logo on a white background in Japan.

In the meantime check it out below and be sure to Pre-Order FF13 over at Play-Asia if you want to get your hands on an import copy as close to the game's December 17th release as possible and let us know what you think of the art in our comments section!

Update: Square Enix reps have confirmed to us that the final boxart has not yet been officially revealed to the public and this is not a file released by them, but declined to comment on this boxart's status and if it is a correct representation.
