Check out below and you’ll see that it is the first ten minutes of the Japanese demo of “Final Fantasy XIII.” The game, which is running on the PS3, looks phenomenal. Game producer Yoshinori Kitase says that the game will be using nearly 100% of the PS3’s power, and, from the looks of it, he’s telling the truth. Even though the video is a little dark, the visuals seem to be some of the best I’ve seen for the system.

After fans complete the Japanese demo a screen comes up noting that the game will see it’s release in the winter of 2009. While it likely won’t show up stateside until 2010, it’s nice to have some sort of confirmed release date window. Enjoy the video below, and keep your eyes peeled here for any more info on Square Enix’s bread and butter franchise.
