Final Fantasy XIII-2 To Have DLC Enemies, Starting With Omega Weapon

Fresh off the press, Square has finally revealed the first pieces of post-launch DLC intended for Final Fantasy XIII-2, starting with Omega. Known more commonly as Omega Weapon, fans of the Final Fantasy series should have no problems recognizing this iconic enemy.

Will the dlc enemies be cheap or overprice?
Don't pull a activision/capcom on us.

Cheap...Overprice

At the end of the day, for a FF game, they're shouldn't even be DLC for it in the first place, the whole point of a FF game is to go out there and explore to find these things.

Oh wait it's FF13-2.....wow the game get's worse and worse every time it's mentioned, and Square wonder why the FF brand is "damaged". Dosen't help when you seem to be taking lessons from Capcom/Activision.

[bayport]

I Heard that the FF-X remake is a remake, not just a HD Port. That leaves room for Square to mess it up big time...

[WhiteLightning]

First of all I would like to correct my crap spelling of "they're" to "there".....was too late to change it. 12 hour College today...it drains me to even take notice at what I write.

Anyway OT

I know right, maybe Square will make you pay for Blitzball, the summons or even the powerful weapons :)

[evrfighter]

Paying for boss fights now before the game comes out even.

Seems legit

[slayorofgods]

I'm hoping that they are in the cheap to free category. I do like that they are at least making some changes from FF13. For example, The Historia Crux System has me interested.

But... we will see how this game ends up, SE has been disappointing this generation and I can only hope they get back on track with the FF series.

[badz149]

the game is not out yet and there are many DLCs already! I'm not an FF fan by any means but I'm not a fan of pre-launch and 1st day DLCs too!

[andron]

Hmm. FFXIII needed 3 discs on 360 and there was no DLC.

Now they have crammed the game down to 1 disc for FFXIII-2. And hey, here come the DLC. FFXIII-2 seems like a quick cash in to recover costs for the high cost of developing FFXIII...

[archemides518]

i'll get this game when it's $20. the dlc i just won't get

[kreate]

seems likes sales will go down even further for square enix. cuz im doing the same thing or worst, wait til 19.99 pre-owned. screw the dlc.

[jimmywolf]

just keep waiting till the game of the year version with all dlc

[badz149]

you think it will get GoTY at all? I don't think so!

[denero1]

To make an appearance so prepare to die

[Troll-without-Bridge]

I think its awesome and will make me play this game for months on end.

[despair]

hmm I only buy from Amazon and they're offering Omega as the pre-order bonus, well that's convenient for me :)

[MidnytRain]

Wow, this DLC thing really HAS gone too far.

[guitar_nerd_23]

That is absolutly NOT COOL.

Well done Square your really winning me back here...

Can everyone whos on the fence about this or annoyed with Square just agree to rent it. They need to be taught a lesson... they had far to much negative reinforcement with FF13 sales I got the collectors edition + collectors edition guide ffs.

Final Fantasy used to be a sure thing! A seal of quality... oh how one-winged angels fall...

[denero1]

This is just greedy tactics of this Gen can't blame 360 for this dirty tactic

[RBLAZE1988]

Actually...you could arguably blame microsoft and the xbox 360 for most of these tactics this gen. They pretty much created this whole dlc trend with the xbla and marketplace and the usage of the dvd format instead of something bigger. Most of Microsofts marketing techniques and shady dealings rely on dlc or dlc exclusivity. Don't tell me that Sony does it too because I know that but Microsoft started the ball rolling on all this bs you guys are just blind to it. The other party to blame for this dlc bullshit is Gamestop.

[Panthers]

This is dumb. These monsters should be awesome secrets or side quests in the game. Not just some lazily added additions that you select from a menu. Each monster should have a story or something behind it.

[Eamon]

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

In past FF games, we would simply search for the Omega Weapon to fight as it's usually the strongest optional boss in the game.

Now, they want to sell it to you for DLC. And you expect me to have fun fighting Omega Weapon with that shitty battle system? Peh.

[kratos123]

you read my mind , im getting old but what happend to exploring ? this gen fore the SP games it really sucks.
screw this game im getting ni no kun now that is a rpg

[RAmar101]

Selling you a boss LOL no thanks!

[synchroscheme]

The times. They are a-changin'.

[jimmywolf]

don't worry it only be .99 cents a boss thier only be 4 or 5 of them also why grind for best wepons thier be on sell too 2.99 per pack an tired trying level buy the xp packs 4.99 an you can be max level in no time

[Ddouble]

It's free if you preorder it from Amazon. I'll be ordering from Amazon as long as we get the same deal here in the UK.

Imma let this one slide since we get to use Omega in our party and we proabbaly won't be able to beat him until near the end of the game. Also the special bosses in XIII where Cieths not the weapons.

However if they start doing this for all special bosses then that's just nonesense. IMO they should include Ultima and Omega like they usually do then add some other bosses maybe a month or 2 after the games released.

Thank God Type-0 seems to be avoiding all the dlc so far. Those who downloaded the demo had the chance to unlock other costumes for the characters.

[scepter]

u preoder u get for free any ff fan always gets on day one if not then your not really diehard ff fan how is this an ripoff.

[RBLAZE1988]

baaaa baaaa says the sheep. When they bring FF back to what the actual fans want it to be then i'll start buying it day 1 again...but the only FF i plan to buy day 1 is FFvs13. I was burned hard on FF13, they knew all the FF fans would buy this day 1 and so they screwed us by giving us a game that is only half of an FF game and a lame one at that. They played on our loyalty and now I hope they feel the burn of that decision when FF13-2 releases and gets no sales

[tiffac008]

Okay not only do we get two separate DLCs (depending on who you preorder from) but the other one is a boss DLC?

Okay I know you can recruit Omega Weapon after you beat him but that would be way near the end of the game before you could get him, so why did this have to be a DLC and not be part of the game already?

[bakasora]

From respect to lost of respect.
Now disrespect.
