Final Fantasy Type-0 Delayed Two Weeks

Square Enix announced today a delay in Final Fantasy Type-0's release. Originally scheduled for release on October 13, the game will now arrive on October 27. Pricing remains the same, 7,700 yens.

As reason for the delay, Square Enix said that it hopes to further improve quality.

A downloadable demo of this PSP-exclusive was released on August 10th had earned the game a lot of praise, though the camera control was a near-universal complaint. Some found it a tolerable, minor annoyance while a select few felt it to be a deal breaker, with most gamers falling between the two extremes. Hajime Tabata then personally told fans that he and his staff would fix the problem, as well as the Phantoma System.

With the former release date of October 13th, and review outlets needing the game about a month before street date, Tabata’s August 14th decision left very little time to fix things. Hopefully for fans, this extra two weeks lets the team do what it needs to do.

Going along with the game's delay, the CD release for the game's "Zero" theme song will also be delayed from October 5 to October 19. The game's Original Soundtrack will now be released on October 26.
