Encrypted Security Token Provides Additional Protection to FINAL FANTASY XI Players
LOS ANGELES (March 24, 2009) - Square Enix, Inc., the publisher of Square Enix interactive entertainment products in North America, today announced the upcoming launch of the Square Enix Account System and Square Enix Security Token in Japan, North America and Europe on April 7, 2009 PDT. Offering additional account safeguards to players of FINAL FANTASY XI, these new initiatives provide for a higher level of account security. The new system will utilize the Square Enix Security Token, which will be available to purchase for $9.99 via the PlayOnline Viewer.
Creating a Square Enix Account is free and can be done by anyone via the official Square Enix website. With this new system in place beginning April 7, 2009 PDT, Square Enix Accounts will be compatible with FINAL
FANTASY XI and PlayOnline, as well as future online services.
After registering a Square Enix Account and purchasing the Square Enix Security Token, players can then assign the token to their PlayOnline ID(s). Using the token will generate a one-time password every 30 seconds for the account. Implementation of these new features is an extension of Square Enix's commitment to continuous service for our customers.
Additionally, players who purchase a security token will also receive the brand new in-game bonus, the "Mog Satchel." The "Mog Satchel" provides additional inventory space and benefits all characters on the PlayOnline account(s). The space provided by the "Mog Satchel" is equal to the character's Gobbiebag capacity and can expand along with it. In order to utilize the bonus, it will be necessary for the customer's PlayOnline ID to be linked to a Square Enix Account.
