Final Fantasy 14 a PS3 exclusive UPDATE: Check out the first Final Fantasy 14 trailer below!

Yes, Final Fantasy 13 isn’t out yet, but that’s not stopped Square Enix from going right on ahead and announcing the next one, Final Fantasy 14. This time, it’s online, and only available on the PS3 when it launches next year.

We just saw a brief video of Final Fantasy 14 at the Sony keynote, and while we don’t know much yet, the graphics are dazzling, and the setting seems FFVII -esque with beautiful rolling scenery.

Do I spy a chocobo? Don't think that's Midgar in the background though.One thing we do know is that Final Fantasy 14 will be online, just like 11 (or XI, however you like to denote these things). That, and it’ll only be available on the Sony PS3, at least when it launches next year.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, there will be chocobos.

    Here’s some more info:

    “The development for FFXIV started 4 or 5 years ago with primary ideas. Development started a few years ago, while FFXI was still being supported. FFXI will continue to be supported. There is another year of content planned. There are no plans for the near future to stop development on FFXI. ”

    “As with WoW, we want to aim a bit for the casual user. However, we don’t want to make a copy of WoW. We believe we will have things that are unique and will stand out from that game. ”

    “All of the knowledge and experience we gained from FFXI will be used in the development of FFXIV. At the launch, we intend to have content for solo players as well as large-scale battles. We want a wide-variety from the start.”

    “The current plans are to have worldwide servers that are cross-platform and cross-region. We will do a beta test and look at the balance and player experience. We want to look for a good balance between region and cross-region play. ”

    “We envision users that will hopefully play XI one day and XIV another. They will be independent, but users are free to play both. ”

    “We are trying to implement a lot of new systems that other MMO’s haven’t used in the past.”
