VG247 � Blog Archive � Square Godzillas Tokyo: FFXIII-2 announced, Agito XIII renamed, Versus XIII stays PS3-exclusive
A long, new trailer of Final Fantasy Versus XIII was also shown. But unlike Agito, there was no renaming.
The trailer begins with voice acting from Noctis in a car. The driver also speaks dialogue. The setting seems to be somewhere which looks very similar to Japan. They’re pulled up at a checkpoint by armed soldiers before . This scene is in CG. Fantastic CG, it must be said.
In-engine footage is then shown of Noctis and lead female Stella. The scene between them, unlike the open scene, remains voiceless. The scene is based in the art gallery seen in past trailers.
It then shows someone in a suit talking, again voiceless, and sitting on a throne. It then proceeds to show a city skyline before rolling into real-time gameplay. Yes, as in actual gameplay.
Invading forces are then seen entering the gallery before showing the city under attack. The HUD display is similar to that of Kingdom Hearts.
The monster shown in the TGS showreel clip of the game then appears before it and Noctis fight.
We then see a green outland where Noctis battles against wild creatures. A day and night cycle is then shown before Noctis enters into a tank.
We revert back into the city environments as Noctis enters into a mech. A unknown character then appears in front of Noctis after jumping off a building. Japanese media suggests this could be Stella. We then see two unknown characters face-off against one another.
Trailer ends with Noctis getting off his throne and saying something we can’t understand.
It was, however, confirmed at the end that the long-awaited RPG will remain as a PS3 exclusive.
