Final Fantasy XIII-2 to feature tougher boss battles for veterans, easy mode for newcomers

The latest issue of Japanese magazine Dengeki PlayStation has plenty of interesting titbits about Final Fantasy XIII-2. The most significant of these is that the game will come with an easy mode for newcomers to the series, or people who simply couldn’t be bothered to spend extra hours on level grinding.

Easy mode was previously included in Final Fantasy XIII International Edition Ultimate Hits (exclusive to Japan) and also added to the standard, Japanese version of Final Fantasy XIII via a patch.

Dengeki PlayStation claims that the boss battles in Final Fantasy XIII-2 will be more challenging that those found in its predecessor, and that monsters which join your party can be renamed and equipped with a slew of accessories including tails and sunglasses.

You can expect a deluge of new media for the game to drop as we near its December 15th Japanese launch. We’ll be able to play Final Fantasy XIII-2 for ourselves when it releases on January 31st in the US and February 3rd in PAL territories for Xbox 360 and PS3.
