Square Enix have announced at Vanafest 2010 that the Final Fantasy XIV beta website will launch on March 11th 2010, just two days after the international release of Final Fantasy XIII. The beta date will be announced at this time, but it is expected to be around the 11th.
Invites to the first round of the beta will be sent out via e-mail to lucky candidates from tomorrow! It has also been announced that loyal Final Fantasy XI players will be able to access a closed alpha phase, presumably those who attended Vanfest.
Vanafest is a yearly event held in Japan to celebrate the progress of Final Fantasy XI. This year, Square Enix decided to include Final Fantasy XIV in the lineup. The news of the beta start date is the only FFXIV information to come out of the event so far.
