UPDATE: Final Fantasy XIV was part of a tech demo, showcasing Sony's 3D technology, but there are no solid plans to include 3D support for the title itself.

Here are some retina-destroying images of FFXIV 3D in action -- probably look much better with the 3D effect.

According to a live report by Engadget, Sony predicts that 20% of TVs sold next year will support 3D, and it looks like FFXIV will be poised and ready to take advantage of this growing market.  As for a release date, the final slide still shows FFXIV is set for "March 2011," though the press release distributed at Eorzea Prelive has at least narrowed this down to "early" March.
