Final Fantasy Explorers getting Final Fantasy 1 pre-order bonus, demo announced
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in News | 5 Comments
Those that pre-order Final Fantasy Explorers in Japan are in for a bit of a treat as Square-Enix have announced that the package will come with a download code for the 3DS version of Final Fantasy 1. The download will then surface on the eShop a month later for everyone else to purchase separately, though it’s unknown at the time if this version is based on a previously released port or if it has been enhanced specifically for the console. Additionally, Square-Enix will be releasing a prologue of the game on the day of the full game’s release, which will effectively act as a demo for the game complete with multiplayer, internet features in a similar vein to that of the Bravely Default prologue.
