The release date for the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers original soundtrack has been announced in Japan, and curiously, it's actually some time after the game is released.

Currently scheduled for release on the 9th of December, 2009, the OST sees its release around a month after the game, but before the North American version hits store shelves.

Composed by Kumi Tanioka, Hidenori Iwasaki and Ryo Yamazaki, it promises to be quite different from the standard fare heard in previous Final Fantasy accompaniment.
