“The canonical ending (there are multiple other ‘what if’ endings) concludes with the words ‘to be continued’ and it’s not a scenario likely to be resolved with future DLC. After the credits, I sat in disbelief, wondering if I had done something wrong or somehow missed the true ending. I didn’t. Square Enix intentionally left the story incomplete. The announcement of Final Fantasy XIII-3 is inevitable.”
That’s an extract from the FFXIII-2 review from the good people at Game Informer. Read that last line again; Final Fantasy XIII-3 is inevitable. Argghh I haven’t even played this game yet and I’m already annoyed at it. That’s got to be some sort of record!
Okay, okay calming down; this doesn’t actually mean there will be a ‘Final Fantasy XIII-3: a little bit more’ as we already know that DLC is planned for the game. It is possible that the DLC will plug the holes in the story. Then it depends on sales (it always depends on sales) maybe FFXIII-2 won’t sale as expected. We already found with FFIV that Square Enix don’t always get things right and FFXIII had mixed results. However Square Enix have registered the domain (through proxy) http://finalfantasyxiii-3.com/ but again that doesn’t mean anything other than somebody thought ahead.
