Limited edition:
 | The limited edition comes in a glossy cardboard box measuring about 7.75 inches square and a little less than 2 inches deep. The liner notes are called a "Visual Book" and are just a bit smaller than the box and fit inside it. The so-called visual book contains the same messages from composer Masashi Hamauzu, director Motomu Toriyama, and producer Yoshinori Kitase as the ones found in the regular edition. It also most, but not all, of the same game screenshots as the regular edition, in addition to other CGI artwork and color illustrations by Yoshitaka Amano that are not found in the regular edition. The music CDs come in a fold-out cardboard case. The tracklist is the same as the regular edition and is printed on the inside flaps. The CD trays are clear plastic with more CGI game scenes underneath them. The lyrics to all the same songs as the regular edition are also printed underneath the CD trays. The lyrics to Sugawara's songs, along with the same profile of her found in the regular edition, are printed on the back inside flap. The CDs slide into a clear plastic slipcase that has the soundtrack name and catalog number printed on it. Also comes with the same merchandise flyer found with the regular edition, and a Square Enix point card. Does NOT come with an obi. The bonus CD is an audio drama called "Episode Zero -Promise-: Story01 -ENCOUNTER-" in a separate jewel case. It originally comes packaged in a silver foil wrapper, and the actual CD has clear plastic shrinkwrap. The liner notes are called a "Scenario Book" that has the audio drama's script in Japanese. The CD tray is clear plastic and the staff and cast credits are printed underneath. |
| The CDs come packaged in a fold-out cardboard case with various CGI artwork decorating the flaps and underneath the clear-plastic CD trays. The case slides into a thin cardboard slipcase that has the FF13 logo on the front. The liner notes fit inside the slipcase and contain the tracklist in mixed Japanese (kana) and English, with their own English interpretations; messages in kana from composer Masashi Hamauzu, director Motomu Toriyama, and producer Yoshinori Kitase; lyrics to "Ragnarok," "Sunleth Waterscape," "Serah's Theme," "Chocobos of Cocoon," "Fighting Fate," "Choose to Fight," "Sulyya Springs," "Dust to Dust," "Born Anew," "Kimi ga iru kara" (long version) and "Eternal Love" (short version); a brief profile of Sayuri Sugawara; and various CGI artwork of the characters and scenes from the game. Some of those pictures are NOT found in the limited edition. Also includes a flyer advertising FF13 Play Arts action figures and various other FF13-related merchandise. Also comes with a Square Enix point card. Does NOT come with an obi. |
The tracklisting in the liner notes is in mixed Japanese (kana) and English. The Japanese names have their own English translations, which are in bold italics and are not necessarily literal ones. I've given the literal translations where applicable.
