SQUARE ENIX today released a new video for FINAL FANTASY® XIV: A Realm Reborn™ in which Lightning, the heroine of LIGHTNING RETURNS™: FINAL FANTASY® XIII descends upon the realm of Eorzea. She appears in one of FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn’s Full Active Time Events (FATE), a periodic battle that will allow players to fight alongside Lightning. Upon completing this event successfully, players can receive gear and weaponry modeled after those found in LIGHTNING RETURNS: FINAL FANTASY XIII.
Also part of this cross-title collaboration, SQUARE ENIX released new Miqo’te costume screenshots for LIGHTNING RETURNS: FINAL FANTASY XIII. Clues for acquiring this costume are hidden within the world of Nova Chrysalia. Players will also be able to acquire weapons and shield themed from the city states of FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn (Limsa Lominsa, Ul’dah, Gridania) by clearing side quests.
