Apparently, Amazon was right on the mark with its dating for Europe‘s Crisis Core release. Square Enix has officially announced that their highly anticipated prequel to Final Fantasy 7 is indeed arriving this June. The exact date’s available for reading in the full article.

When we picked up word that Europe would be getting a special edition bundle of their copy of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 for the PSP, we also stated that Amazon would be launching the kit by June.

Now, in case you’re wondering when the game will officially launch, here’s the good news straight from the horse’s mouth. Square Enix has announced that Crisis Core is confirmed for a June 20 launch for all the PAL territories. This means that both Europe and Australia will be getting the game at the same time.

If you happen to have pre-ordered the special edition pack, you also get a 48-page hardbound me, complete with its own slipcase packaging. Set your calendars for the appointed day, folks – this game should answer any lingering questions you may have regarding the Final Fantasy 7 storyline, such as the origins of the humongous Buster Sword. It’s also a pretty good game in its own right, as indicated by our previous play-through.
