Final Fantasy VIII PC download version this winter?

After the release of an enhanced version of Final Fantasy VII for the PC on the Square Enix Store and Steam the wait is now for an enchanced version of Final Fantasy VIII for the PC. However there's a hint it might be coming soon. In the Japanese Square Enix Store you can pre-order Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster. When you spend 7,500 yen or more before 26 December 2013 you'll receive 50% off the PC version of Final Fantasy VIII (normal price 1,500 yen).

The PC version of Final Fantasy VIII was ported by Eidos and released back in 2000. In May this year Square Enix announced that the PC version will be released in Japan. According to the Square Enix e-Store the release of Final Fantasy VIII for PC is now planned for this winter.
