Fans of the Final Fantasy series will be seriously out of pocket now that Square Enix have announced two special editions of the upcoming Final Fantasy XIII-2, due for release on 3rd February for PS3 and Xbox 360. Both editions will be available for pre-order from today across Europe and other PAL territories.

The LIMITED COLLECTOR’S EDITION will come housed in unique packaging and will include the FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 game; a Composer Selected Soundtrack CD featuring a number of the music tracks from the game specially chosen by FINAL FANTASY XIII’s development team; an artwork book “The Art of FINAL FANTASY XIII-2”, featuring material from various stages of the game’s development; 6 collectible postcards featuring high quality CG artwork of main characters in the game; and a High Definition Lenticular Art print of the character, Lightning.
