Official Fabula Nova Crystallis Compilation Info Thread

[Weasel Overlord]

Fabula Nova Crystallis, for those of you who don't know (if that's anyone) is the name of the upcoming Compilation Squenix are doing, consisting of; Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Final Fantasy Agito XIII and something pretty much unknown called Final Fantasy Haeresis XIII.

I, being the little obsessive that I am, am following everything to do with these games pretty rabidly, so I thought it might be nice if I made a news thread and stuck up all the information as it comes out - there's some pretty interesting stuff in the lead-up to XIII's Japanese release - rather than just having various bits and bats pop up sporadically. And I know there's at least two people other than me who are vaguely interested in these games, so hopefully this'll be of some use.

So first up, obviously most of the info will be regarding FFXIII, cos Versus is only in development still, Agito is pretty much a big fat unknown except for the trailer, and Haeresis, well, I have no clue since it's mostly a rumour.

- As of a few days ago, the European site for FFXIII got a major update - it now contains the full dubbed (7 minutes long) trailer in some pretty sweet quality, a pile of screenshots and character profiles for Lightning, Sahz, Snow and Vanille.
- On the 13th of November, there is a HUGE announcement set for release. There's a big fat countdown timer on the European site, stating the the announcement will be at 3.30pm. The general consensus is that it'll be for the official EU release date, and the announcement will be in the form of a video.
- More and more new pictures are being released by the day. The latest of these are high quality scans;
1) Chocobos!! ZOMG!! Personally, I love the new design. Especially the little wing thingies on either side of their heads. Cute!
2) Fang and Sazh

I'll post a new reply every time something's updated (if that's okay, Roy?), and especially regarding the special announcement on Friday!

EDIT: pretty much all news is sourced from ffxii.net and playstation lifestyle. So thanks to those guys who work super hard getting scans and translations for us.
