Square Enix has announced yet another continuation of the surprisingly resilient Final Fantasy XIII series – in the form of “Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII” (“Final Fantasy XIII-3” apparently being too straightforward) which promises further Lightning action for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

The trailer and other materials, accompanying “world driven” as the game’s ambiguous buzzphrase (apparently indicating an open-world design), along with some speculation about a possible Facebook link-up and not much else in the way of concrete details:

Whilst Lightning fans are understandably delighted, the more sceptical followers of Square Enix’s progress have been wondering whether the game is yet another effort to cheaply recoup development costs after the various disasters of recent years, and just how long they will have to wait for Final Fantasy XV and VII now…
