FFXIII-2 Heads or Tails DLC details
Thursday, February 16th, 2012As we reported earlier, a new DLC package is on the way for Final Fantasy XIII-2 that features a Sazh Katzroy as well as some new outfits for our protagonists. The DLC scenario is called “Heads or Tails” and features Sazh and Dajh as they travel through time and end up in the enigmatic casino Serendipity. Upon completion, you’ll be able to unlock Sazh as a “monster” party member much like Lightning, Amodar, and Omega. Two new card games will be added to Serendipity: Serendipity Poker and Chronobird which Sazh will play in his scenario. This DLC will cost $4.99 or 400 Microsoft Points. Cheaper than my own earlier prediction!
In addition to that, two new costumes for $2.99/240msp each will be available on the same day. Serah Farron will get her pink bikini Beachwear costume, and Noel Kreiss gets a blue armored Spacetime Guardian outfit.
All aforementioned DLC will be available Tuesday, February 28th across all regions.

Jihl Nabaat makes it rain in FFXIII-2 DLC
Sunday, February 12th, 2012You probably remember Jihl Nabaat from Final Fantasy XIII, the code confused Sanctum official in charge of manipulating Sazh and his son Dajh. She met her untimely end not long after, but it seems she’s back from the dead to duel Serah and Noel in the Coliseum. You’ll likely be able to recruit her into your party after you crystallize her, like Lightning and Amodar. The DLC release date has yet to be revealed, but expect it to be somewhat soon.
