Final Fantasy XIII 'Elixir' beverage headed to Japanese inventories this winter

The release date, price, and reveal of a PS3 bundle for Final Fantasy XIII were big news, sure, but the real megaton out of the Final Fantasy XIII Party was the announcement of a tie-in beverage from Final Fantasy XII Potion partner Suntory.

Like the Dissidia beverage, Final Fantasy XIII "Elixir" will come in 16 collectible cans, each with a different character on it. It will be available sometime this winter, either in single cans (of Lemon or Aloe-flavored Elixir), in packages with collectible figurines, or in a collector's box with all 16 cans. No, we don't know why the logo uses the Star Trek movie font.

You may have noticed the repeated reference to collecting. Anyone who tried the FFXII Potion will tell you that these drinks are for collectors only -- as in, people who aren't going to drink them.
