UPDATE:
Square's confirmed that FFXIII-2 will hit North America and Europe "next winter." The firm also dropped a few extra tidbits on the sequel for our consumption, revealing it'll feature "a battle system which has evolved further since XIII," and an all-new story that follows on from FFXIII. Check out the debut trailer below.
ORIGINAL ARTICLE:
Square Enix has officially lifted the lid on the long-rumored Final Fantasy XIII-2 during its First Production Department presser in Japan today.
Details are thin on the ground, though it’s been confirmed that Motomu Toriyama will direct the project, with murmurs suggesting it’ll be produced by Yoshinori Kitase.
Square teased the sequel with a new character accompanying FFXIII heroine Lightning, as well as showcasing the game’s logo.
FFXIII-2 is due out on PS3 and Xbox 360 in Japan at some point in 2011. Stay tuned for more as it breaks.

People complaining about a sequel to XIII need to calm down a bit... XIII wasn't an amazing game but you don't know anything about XIII-2 and we all saw that it was coming. No point criticising it now when you have no evidence to suggest it will be bad, wait for more info and if you still don't like it express your view in a clear non-fanboyism way.

will it have :
- towns with people to talk to, weapon/armor shops that get better equipment as you progress into the game?
- a good experience system (not a ripoff of the sperier who was the most pitiful XP sytem ever)?
- free roaming from the start?
- aeons/summons respectfully used, not transforming into whatever and using special attacks like Street Fighter?
- non ridiculous characters
if the answer is not yes to all (and already the stupid black guy who walks like he has a terminal disease is in the game) I won't buy it -

HOPEFULLY, they listen to the fans. As mush as i hate 13, i will probably get this. So it will be release in japan this winter, that sucks for the whole world. I feel the fans outrage.

I find it amazing how many people are assuming XIII-2 is going to be a bad game, even though we know little about the game. I doubt XIII-2 will be any worse than XIII, especially when Square just said in an interview they were going to make XIII-2 even better and make improvements to the gameplay.
