As previously announced, Square Enix will be releasing eight download songs for Theatrhythm Final Fantasy at ¥150 per song. Act quickly, and you'll get somewhat of a discount. To commemorate the game's release, Square Enix said today that the songs will for a limited time cost ¥100 each.

It's unclear how long the lower pricing will last, so buyers may want to act quick (even though the game already ships with 70 songs built in).

Dragon Quest X has a screenshot feature. You'll be able to make use of a "photo machine" to take pictures, which can be uploaded to your page at a special website for viewing by other players.

Square Enix suggests using this feature to make a journal of your adventure, take group pictures with your friends, and take pics of intense battles.

Square Enix also shared screens showing the actions of some of the game's monsters. These images can be seen below.

Famitsu has given Theatrhythm: Final fantasy some high remarks but there is also another person who is giving praise and endorsing this Title. That person is none other than the legendary composer Nobuo Uematsu. Here's a quote from what he tweeted earlier today:

"I played Theatrhythm Final Fantasy for the first time today. Not too shabby! As I remembered various things from the past 20 years, I was reduced to tears. FF music fans should definitely play it. Won't you cry with me?"

Dengeki Online has posted a lengthy interview with Theatrhythm Final Fantasy producer Ichiro Hazama just ahead of the game's release tomorrow. We learn that Square Enix hopes to release over 50 songs as download content. Eight songs will be available at launch. The DLC list includes songs that the staff had wanted to put in the game but couldn't fit due to capacity limitations.

The game includes over 70 songs. The music selection is based off music surveys conducted at Square Enix Members during the development of Dissidia, as well as considerations of balance. Hazama joked that if they'd just followed the survey results, the game would have been more like Theatrhythm Final Fantasy VII.

Hazama said that he'd of course like to make Theatrhythm into a series. However, there are some internally at Square Enix who want to do the same thing with music from Romancing Saga.
