Well, there's currently a rumor that if you buy Final Fantasy XIII you will get a beta key for FFXIV. What platform it is for or at what date you can use the key is not specified or known at this time. Which means it could be for the PC or PS3 only and possibly next year instead of anytime 'soon'. The magazine that has this information and also where early scans has leaked from is Shoen Jump.
What's your thoughts on this, will it be a limited amount of FFXIII copies which will have the key? Only in Japan or also abroad? FFXIII will be released December 17th.
Addendum by SteveManly:
I checked a few Japanese fansites. eLeMeN - FF14 thinks that this is most likely a campaign code for an in-game item. Final Fantasy 14 Fan is unsure whether it's a beta key, a download code for the development version, a limited edition item, or something else, but they quote the FFXI Term Dictionary about "campaign code:" "a service where a selected character can receive a limited in-game item using a code included with other merchandise the player buys." They go on to say that, since Square Enix released in an interview that the beta test will be world wide, it's a little difficult to believe that they would release a Japan-only beta code. However, they said, if this were the case it must be something that Square Enix has though through thoroughly.
