From a four page article on Square Enix’s Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Dengeki’s Playstation magazine reveals more information on the installment, and perhaps even more anticipation. Tetsuya Nomura, in the article, has stated that Versus will not be hitting shelves any time soon in 2011.

However, some new information has surfaced in the article, even though we still don’t know any of the characters’ names except for Noctis.

Such things are :
* Magic has different effects depending on the character who uses it.
* A young blonde male character shown in the magazine’s screenshots is good with guns. He alone has aiming controls and can aim for enemy weak spots. (But when other characters use guns, they have just a normal lock-on.)
* The game has a large number of weapons. Main character Noctis can use them all.
* Your battle party can have up to three members. However, the members who aren’t taking part in the battle will join in on conversations.
* There are more party members than the four shown in the magazine. However, the game doesn’t have a massive number of party members.
* Some segments of the trailer show natural landscapes. These are like the fields you encounter in other games. The game will have time progression: morning, afternoon, evening and night.
* Contrary to some theories, the dragon rider character who appears in the trailer is not heroine Stella. Nomura says he wouldn’t show Stella in such a state. The character you see in that sequence is an enemy.
* The blonde character shown in the trailer is Noctis’s friend. The other two characters are friends from Noctis’s childhood. The person with glasses is like Noctis’s tactician.
* You’ll recall that someone in the trailer says “You’re not fit to be king,” or something to that effect. This statement is not directed at Noctis.
* Nomura says something along the lines of: This year, we have Type-0 and XIII-2, so please forget about Versus for a while. He asked that people be patient and understand that they’re trying to do something incredible.

If Square Enix is still working on this game, then I hope they do take their time and make this an A+ game of the year when it comes out.
