Square Enix has unveiled the very first trailer (thanks GameTrailers) for yet another title in the Final Fantasy XIII spin-off series, this time titled Lighting Returns. While details are still slim on what exactly we can expect from the third title in the Final Fantasy XIII, players can expect to take control of returning character Lightning in what seems to be the ending of his chapter.

Lightning will be the playable character - with a highly evolved range of techniques for battles and exploring the environment. Customise Lightning with a large range of different outfits and weapons; that affect not only the way she looks, but also her actions and abilities.

A new battle system gives a level of direct control over the action unlike any FINAL FANTASY game, while having iconic elements that are known and loved throughout the series too.

You can check out the trailer below to get a glimpse at what you can expect from the long-running series, including overview of the new action battle system.
