Battle system
Toriyama comments on Final Fantasy XIII's battle system: "Final Fantasy XIII took on the challenge of seeing how much of the battles in Final Fantasy VII Advent Children can be recreated in a game. The battles that were impossible to be presented in current Final Fantasy games were shown in Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. In reverse, Final Fantasy XIII will show how much of that can be represented in the game."[5] Toshiro Tsuchida, the creator of the Front Mission franchise and previously the battle director of Final Fantasy X, will return as the battle system director for the game; he has reaffirmed that random encounters will not return, whilst suggesting individual enemies may be given personalities.

Story

Final Fantasy XIII's story begins as something from the lower world invades the Cocoon, causing a panic. Cocoon is an air city which was created by the crystals, protected by machines. Having lived peacefully for many years, the inhabitants of Cocoon are very fearful and are afraid of everything, from outside of Cocoon, and above all what comes from the dark region. Also the operational “strange organization” are feared by the denizens of Cocoon. The biggest concern amongst Cocoon residents is that of their home falling from the sky. People who do things that could make Cocoon fall from the sky, and people who are believed to have the ability to do such things, are deported from Cocoon. Recent contact with those from the world below, Pulse, have caused people to question one another and their ways of life. Due to this disturbance, the government of Cocoon have decided to exile those who show signs of coming in contact with the world of Pulse. The crystal looked for itself a woman, who should destroy this world and its inhabitants. One believes that this woman will lead the world to its fall. Her name is Lightning

Final Fantasy XIII

Final Fantasy XIII (ファイナルファンタジーXIII Fainaru Fantajī Sātīn?) is an upcoming console role-playing game developed and published by Square Enix Co., Ltd.. It is slated to be the first main Final Fantasy series title for the Sony PlayStation 3 video game console. Unveiled at E³ 2006, the game features a high-tech futuristic world. The only characters revealed thus far are a woman with the code name Lightning who wields a gunblade-like weapon, and an unnamed, giant man who is her ally. Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 director Motomu Toriyama returns as the director of the game.[1] According to Square Enix President Yoichi Wada, the storyline will focus on "those who resist the world."[2]

Final Fantasy XIII will run on the "White Engine", a proprietary engine built for Square Enix's next-gen games. The game was originally planned for the PlayStation 2 but was later moved to the PlayStation 3 after the development team discovered the power of the platform.

Square Enix recently announced they had licensed Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3 to use on a number of particular next generation titles, but will still use the White Engine for most exclusive Playstation 3 games, most notably Final Fantasy XIII.[3]
