Be sure to cast your votes in the poll below; but first, let’s look at the box designs themselves.
North America / Japan
The original box art, which North America would adopt, probably looks a bit more like the more abstract Square Enix designs usually used for the classic Final fantasy cover. It shows a fairy on a black background, and the Japanese variant reinforces this with a black 3DS border on the right. It’s a subtle, classy design that’s sure to turn heads and we love it.
Europe / Japan
Meanwhile, the ‘To Be Continued’ design is just as lovely in our book. It’s much more colorful, featuring the game’s main characters spread out on a grassy knoll with the logo tucked neatly in the top left corner. Personally, we prefer the black trim shown on the Japanese variant; it just looks cool, you know? Either way, this will be a tough choice.
Thanks for voting! See you next time for another round of Box Art Brawl.
