<p>Square Enix has put out a new trailer for <em>Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII</em> in time for E3. The trailer shows Lightning showing up thirteen days before the world is supposed to end and soon defending herself against Noel (protagonist from <em>Final Fantasy XIII-2</em>) and Snow, who is still around, apparently.</p>
<p>We also get some short scenes involving gameplay, which still shows a real-time combat system and a variety of outfits that gives Lightning different skills and attacks.</p>
<p>Additionally, the trailer ends with a release date for the game, confirming it to be coming to NA on February 11, 2014 and to Europe three days later (Feb 14th). With the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 set to be releasing this Fall, could we see <em>Lightning Returns</em> brought to next-gen?</p>
