In the same blog post, Sony Japan's store also announced a Final Fantasy VII Remake neck speaker and a Final Fantasy VII Remake PS4 top cover:
Square Enix and Sony haven't announced a similar bundle outside Japan. I don't believe they will. I think Square Enix might have planned to announce a similar bundle in other territories. However, seeing the current Covid-19 situation, it might have been canned. Japan's biggest events have been canceled or shifted. The Olympics were postponed to 2021. But overall, Japan isn't on lockdown or facing a dire situation like European countries. This means the Final Fantasy VII Remake PS4 bundle only releasing there makes sense.
DualShockers will be sure to tell you if Square Enix announced the bundle outside Japan.
