Final Fantasy XIII-2 isn’t out here yet, but journalists more fortunate than us have already clocked up hours and hours of the game, and finished it.<\/p>\n

Over at Game Informer, they finished the game and published their review – dropping the bomb on the little bit of the ending that will make players’ ears prick up: the words “to be continued.”<\/p>\n

Obviously we’re not telling how the game ends – but it would seem that the story is left open enough, and leaves enough unanswered, to pretty much say with confidence that a follow-up is in the works – whether that’s a full game, though, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

“You aren’t even getting a complete story,” they said, “The canonical ending (there are multiple other ‘what if’ endings) concludes with the words ‘to be continued’.”<\/p>\n

“After the credits, I sat in disbelief, wondering if I had done something wrong or somehow missed the true ending. I didn’t. Square Enix intentionally left the story incomplete. The announcement of Final Fantasy XIII-3 is inevitable.”<\/p>\n

Even though the mag doubts that any form of DLC<\/a> could tie the loose ends up – Square-Enix<\/a> have said they’re going to be releasing DLC for the game, so perhaps that’s where things will be resolved.<\/p>\n

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is landing on South African shores 3 Feburary 2012 – be sure to check out Final Fantasy XIII-2: everything you need to know<\/strong><\/a> to find out what to expect.<\/p>\n
