Japanese fans of Final Fantasy XI will be pleased to know that they can get beta access to Square Enix's new upcoming MMORPG, Final Fantasy XIV, by purchasing Final Fantasy XIII.

The news was revealed in this week's edition of Shonen Jump Magazine, and it's just one of the things Square Enix are trying to do to increase sales of their upcoming RPG. Previously they announced a Final Fantasy XIII branded PlayStation 3 Slim, and there are sure to be more offers in the future.

Whether or not this offer will be extended to Western gamers for the Western of Final Fantasy XIII remains to be seen, but we really hope it does.
