Square Enix hopes to capture all the Final Fantasy fans by bringing back a classic add-on.
The pre-order bonus for the third installment of Final Fantasy XIII will feature Cloud's Buster Sword and original uniform from Final Fantasy VII.
By watching the video, it's fitting to see Lighting dolled up Cloud gear -- they're basically the same model. By comparing Lightning to the artwork of Cloud on a Final Fantasy VII box, not much difference can be seen besides some facial features and the hair.
Who knows, with how much Square Enix is extending this story I wouldn't be surprised to a cameo appearance by Cloud himself, AND he's the brother of Lightning. Oh, the only thing they would have to do after that is add a gang all named Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie.
And while bringing them back, might as well have Tifa along. Seeing her in all that high-definiton glory would make the old, horny teenager that's hidden inside spring out to life. My girlfriend has been warned.
Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is available for pre-order now and will be released next February on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 for the standard retail price of $59.99. Destructoid announced that Amazon will have a $10 credit with pre-order.
