Final Fantasy IX in November

According to The Next Level, Final Fantasy IX will hit U.S. stores in mid-November. “Final Fantasy fans in the U.S. will have to wait just a few more months to experience the adventure,” said Jun Iwasaki, president of Square Electronic Arts. “We are delighted to go out with a bang this year on the PlayStation and look forward to similar success with the U.S. launch as we had in Japan.” Next month, Square EA will hold a one-day only event offering consumers an opportunity to demo Final Fantasy IX before it hits retail shelves this November. This “Consumer Demo Day” will be held on October 7 inside the world’s only PlayStation store in Metreon – A Sony Entertainment Center located at 4th & Mission streets in San Francisco. In addition to playing the highly anticipated game, consumers will receive a free Final Fantasy related promotional item, while supplies last.
