Final Fantasy XIII-2 Lightning DLC Dated
By now, it’s no secret that Final Fantasy XIII-2 leaves us with a cliff-hanger. It was announced a few months back that the story would continue via downloadable content, and that there were no plans for a Final Fantasy XIII-3 at this time. The first significant piece of DLC to expand the story featured former cast member Sazh Katzroy, and while it added a few casino games, it was much more of a side-story, and didn’t actually progress the plot. I’m hoping the latest piece of DLC to be announced, the much anticipated Lightning chapter, will do just that. According the Japanese gaming mag Dengenki PlayStation, that particular chapter be made available this May.
Lightning’s story will focus on the battle between her and Caius, but should differ from their previous encounter — by that, I imagine they mean the one that takes place during game’s intro sequence. The magazine also touts the name “Requiem of the Goddess,” but I’m not sure if that’s how they’ll end up translating it when the chapter gets released overseas. Square Enix will likely make an announcement in the coming weeks, and maybe they’ll provide an official translation of the title at the time.
