This morning we revealed on the Train2Game blog that Square Enix announced Final Fantasy XIII-2 with a brief teaser trailer at an event in Japan.
Now both the trailer and the official press release have appeared online. According to Square Enix, Final Fantasy XIII-2 be better than the original:
“FINAL FANTASY XIII-2” is currently in production with an aim for producing high quality game content which exceeds “FINAL FANTASY XIII” in every aspect; namely, a brand-new story which stems from the previous title as well as a battle system which has evolved further since “XIII” – and more. We will be disclosing further details about the new game in the future.”
Anyway, enough with the text. Train2Game blog readers can see the Final Fantasy XIII-2 trailer below. Oh, it’s in Japanese by the way…
Final Fantasy XIII-2 is scheduled for release “next winter” for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Square Enix will be hoping it can go some way to matching the success of Final Fantasy XIII which has shipped 6 million units worldwide since its release in March 2010.
Square Enix has also launched a European Final Fantasy XII-2 website which Train2Game blog readers can check out for soon more information.
So Train2Game, what are your thoughts on the Final Fantasy XIII-2 trailer? Does it convince you that Square Enix are doing the right thing? Will it be as successful as Final Fantasy XIII?
As usual, you can leave your thoughts here on the Train2Game blog on the Train2Game forum.

I wasnt as impressed with ffxiii as I had hoped, as I loved the games leading up to it, but quickly found it was quite linear. Hopefully -2 will make up for it xD but I fear they have decided to make the open world ff games mmorpg’s.
