About FFXIV: A Square-Enix MMO
Final Fantasy XIV is an MMORPG by Square Enix and will be released simultaneously in all regions. Like Final Fantasy XI, Final Fantasy XIV is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. The game takes place in a land called Hydaelyn, mainly in a region named Eorzea, which has an aesthetic blend of sci-fi and classic fantasy elements.
Final Fantasy XIV, also known as Final Fantasy Online, FFXIV, and FF14, is the fourteenth installment in the Final Fantasy series. There are more than 14 titles under the name Final Fantasy; This MMO is due out for release at the end of September for Microsoft Windows. It was intended to have a simultaneous Playstation 3 release; however, the PS3 version has since been delayed until March of 2011.
In recent history, it was confirmed that closed alpha testing began on March 11, 2010 at VanaFest 2010, an event to commemorate the eighth year of Final Fantasy XI. When Final Fantasy XIV entered into its Alpha testing stage, players from different parts of the world were logging on at different times and testing what the development team at Square Enix created. Square Enix had said that about ten percent of the game was actually available for play within the Alpha test stage.
More recently, the Alpha testing has been completed. The Windows PC Beta testing was announced, via the newly established official Twitter account, to begin on July 10, 2010.

I’m still not sure if being in europe I can play in usa Servers… was very confusing that and I do not like when the games do that really… I had the same issues with 2 moons and I just played the trial and now is on the box… hehe
According to a page on Wikipedia about development it says: “The game will have cross-platform servers between PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Windows, making all servers accessible from any country.” I guess everyone will find out in time
On the NA version of the site it says: “If you have already applied for the FINAL FANTASY XIV beta test but would like to apply for the PlayStation 3 beta with a FINAL FANTASY XIV promotional code, please be aware that all previous applications will be invalidated.” I assume that is not bad, it is merely replaced.
Wow man keep it up
