Crysta launches today in both Europe and the US. Whether Pound or Euro; its 1 shiny coin for 100 Crysta. Square shuns the currency exchange rate.
”The introduction of Crysta is an exciting step for Square Enix,” said Square Enix Europe president Phil Rogers. The Crysta goes on sale from today for European and North American users - it’s already up in Japan.
“Our business is actively looking to create new on-line entertainment and deliver high quality content and services and having a safe and simple payment method is an important part of our online strategy.” You can buy it in blocks with a cap imposed on your wallet.
You can snap up 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000 or 10,000 Crysta at a time, so that’s blocks of £5/€5, £10/€10, £20/€20, £30/€30, £50/€50 or £100/€100. Final Fantasy XIV Online releases on PC September 30th, and on PS3 in March 2011.
