While Square Enix released a mini teaser trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 last week, now E3 is in full swing, they’ve finally released the full version for us to pore over. The trailer includes new gameplay from Serah and Noel as well as Lightning wielding her summon Odin. Several of the games mechanics have been altered and added to including the addition of Quick time events. Despite her earlier appearance in the trailer, when Team NORA rescues Serah near the end of the trailer, Lebreau assumes Lightning is dead.
The trailer also reveals a newly revised “Winter 2012″ release. Watch the full English trailer below.
Like the Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer, the Final Fantasy Type-0 trailer has also been officially released in High Definition today. Enjoy the trailer below without any distortion or sound issues like the previous.
The latest Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer shown at Square Enix’s 1st Production Premier has been released officially online in High Definition like promised. There isn’t much more to say but enjoy the much better quality video below.
The debut trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 has been officially released in HD and surprisingly, there’s a fully voice English version of it as well. The English version ends with “Coming Next Winter” so the potential for an early 2012 release seems likely. With the release of the trailer comes the launch of the North American official game site and if you hadn’t already noticed, the launch of the European site at a familiar domain. Watch the trailer and see the sites below.

The new Final Fantasy Type-0 trailer from the 1st Production Premier has made it’s way online. The pretty long trailer includes all new footage, both CG and gameplay including a fully voiced cast.

Watch it below.
Update: Now officially released in High Definition.
The full HD trailer will be officially released on the 27th. Here are some screenshots and the logo for now.
The debut Final Fantasy XIII-2 Trailer has been revealed at the 1st Production Premier event and shown live on Nico Nico. Although more of a teaser, it includes Lightning fully clad in a suit of armour and ends with her standing back to back with a new male character. We can safely assume he’s the man in the logo. The games 2011 release date was then shown at the end of the trailer.

There’s been enough debate among fans whether some of the footage in yesterdays Final Fantasy Versus XIII TGS trailer is real-time or pre-rendered, to warrant Nomura weighing in to clarify what’s going on. The debate centres around whether the opening cinematic in the Versus section of the trailer is in-game or pre-rendered footage. On the 3rd Birthday Twitter, Nomura says that this scene with Noctis is indeed pre-rendered but the rest of the trailer is completely in-game. Nomura also says that the desert Noctis is running around would probably be best to travel around via a car unless the player chose not to do so.
The part of his Tweet I’m most interested in though is the last. He confirms that the Behemoth fight at the end of the trailer has been slowed down. Nomura says this is because Noctis is so fast that the viewer wouldn’t be able to see him clearly. It’s a big sigh of relief but it does make me question why they even chose to do this in the first place. I’m sure most of us would have preferred to see him fight at normal speed.

Although it may have taken longer than expected, the joint Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Final Fantasy Agito XIII trailers have been officially released online.

Of course that hasn’t stopped people from ripping it. Here’s the trailer for all to see. An HD version will probably be released soon.
Update: The Youtube link has been taken down. We’ve now uploaded it to our own player.
