'''This article assumes you have played ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'' and will have unmarked spoilers from that game.'''
The next game<ref>we completely avoided what happened [[Final Fantasy X 2|last time]]</ref> in the [[Running Gag|baby-blendingly popular]] ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' series, and the fifth title in the series to be a direct sequel to a main series title. The game was teased on January 27, 2011 at the Square Enix 1st Production Department Premier Conference, and was subsequently released on December 15th, 2011 in Japan, January 31st, 2012 in North America, and February 3rd, 2012 in Europe. Like its predecessor, it is for both the [[
Three years after the end of ''Final Fantasy XIII'', the residents of Cocoon are attempting to rebuild their lives following the loss of the Cocoon fal'Cie. Lightning is missing, assumed to have [[Heroic Sacrifice|sacrificed herself]] in order to stop Cocoon from falling and killing everyone inside. Only one person believes otherwise: Serah Farron, who swears that her sister emerged alive but disappeared into thin air a moment later.
Line 355:
** You can see sidequests you've accepted via the menu.
** When you load your game from the title screen, a brief [["Previously On..."]] will play, reminding you of the story so far.
* [[Old Save Bonus]]: If the player has save data for ''Final Fantasy XIII'' on their HD, the success rate of the slots minigame in Xanadu/Serendipity will be higher. They also unlock several in game items, a theme for your Playstation Dashboard (for [[
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Played for ''[[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|funny]]''. {{spoiler|The Miniflans in Sunleth Waterscape 400AF are attempting to destroy the crystal pillar, but they need others to help. Eventually, you have to fight them}}, [[Memetic Mutation|while Square-Enix plays inappropriate music]]. {{spoiler|They are defeated and scolded by Serah in mere minutes.}}
* [[Only Smart People May Pass]]: The Hands of Time Temporal Rifts veer straight into this trope, with players wasting half an hour on one puzzle being a common sight. Thankfully, IGN made a excel spreadsheet that does it for you [http://faqs.ign.com/articles/121/1218039p1.html here]. For those willing to look at Japanese, [http://nyusuke.com/game/ff13/ff13-2puzzle.html this page] doesn't require Excel. Just input the number at the top of the "clock" into the spot labeled 0 and go clockwise from there.
Line 452:
* [[Total Eclipse of the Plot]]: The eclipse that happens at some point in future history is implied to have darkened the entire continent for years. Perhaps [[Justified]] by it being caused by a fal'Cie rather than a celestial object. This trope also applies to Yaschas Massif 010AF to a lesser extent.
* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]:
** Beware the latest [[
** The [http://youtu.be/TludyEtj7OA?t=2m27s latest PS3 trailer] (released at the same time as the above) has another (and different!) spoiler: {{spoiler|it confirms that Lightning and Serah eventually reunite through the time travel paradigms}}, which seemed to be a little bit too far for trailers 3-4 months before the release.
* [[The Unexpected]]:
