Who’s excited for Final Fantasy XIII-2? If you raised your hand in front of your monitor, then pay attention. Square Enix will reveal the release date for Final Fantasy XIII-2 at the Tokyo Game Show. Yes, the announced an announcement. Pretty common for the Japan-based developer and publisher. Okay, it a fan Q&A event in Tokyo over the weekend. Motomu Toriyama, the director, was the one who told everyone. Still, its nice that we will get an exact release date for the sequel of Final Fantasy XIII.

There was some other information Toriyama decided to give. This included the following:

    He beat around the DLC bush
    A limited edition could be on the horizon
    Having a XIII save data will give you bonuses for XIII-2
    More info on monster raising, including a number of raisable monsters (150)
    Chocobos can be ridden everywhere, unlike XIII. However, you can not access them at the beginning of the game
    A red chocobo will make an appearance for the first time in the series.
    The Moogle Serah has comes from Lightning’s world.
    The story is shorter than XIII but makes up for it with side quests and time travelling.
    Character from XIII will be playable in the final game
    90% of the game has been complete, so it should make its release date

Wow, quite a lot to summarise. Check out our coverage of the Tokyo Game Show over the next two weeks. We will be previewing games and giving you the latest news straight from the Land of the Rising Sun.

Josh is the name, writing is my game... well my degree will say that. But, when uni gets me down (and it does), there is no better way that to grab a chair, sit back and slicing up some DarkspawnI started my gaming interest back in the good old 16 bit era with the Sega Mega Drive and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I was roughly five years old. To this day I still try to fire up the dusty companion and speed through the wacky and bright levels, jumping on some Badniks, collecting those damn Chaos Emeralds. Then I moved onto Sony's disk based console the Playstation (thanks to my uncle). Since then I have picked up each of Sony's consoles from the 5th to current generation that has been released in Australia (with more to come).In terms of writing about games, I am quite new to the field. I started out late last year with my own blog before deciding to move to greener pastures. I have written a few reviews for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Portable. Features as well. I hope I can flex my muscles while writing with Capsule Computers.If I'm not gaming, however, I'm writing narratives. I am currently trying to kickstart a high fantasy novel (which, hopefully, turns into a complex RPG) that I want done in five years or so. My passion of writing has been there for a long time and has flourished as I grew. I'm into the fantasy genre, both games and novels, and thoroughly enjoy a deep and complex RPG, whether it comes from the East or West.Oh and anime is awesome!
