Final Fantasy XIII-2 announced
January 21st, 2011 by Colin Temple
Square Enix has announced a sequel to its most recent single-player flagship Final Fantasy title. Final Fantasy XIII-2 is in development for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
The game was announced at a press conference this week with a new FF13-2 trailer. Not many details about the game are known, except for what can be derived from the trailer. Lightning will be back, along with a new character shown alongside her in the logo and in the trailer.
FF13-2 is a direct sequel to Final Fantasy XIII, which was released for the Xbox 360 and PS3 in 2009. Direct sequels are uncommon for Final Fantasy games, though recently more titles have seen them.
Final Fantasy XIII-2 is due out next Winter for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

I am a bit amused they broke their naming convention but I guess they don’t care about anything but making more money at this point.

They used the same convention for Final Fantasy X-2, though. That is their convention for direct sequels now.
