This was first teased ages ago with the Lightning fashion shoot, but it's finally here. I'm sure you're all very excited.

I could also be reading the page incorrectly, but it looks like they changed the combat system, at least for the event, to FF13's, or an approximation of it.

Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII will be the first ”Ultimate Hero" card in Mobius Final Fantasy, Square Enix announced.

Ultimate Hero cards strengthen the main character and transforms their appearance, voice, and ultimate attack to that of the character.

The Lightning Ultimate Hero card will be added alongside a new storyline and other content updates and gameplay enhancements as part of the ”Lightning Resurrection" event that begins today, which also includes:

• A system that refreshes battle: The new ”Lightning Resurrection" region introduces a unique battle system where players unlock paradigms to gain powerful effects in battle.
• Hope and Snow, the New Legend Job Summons: Players will get the chance to obtain Hope (”Hope's Guide") and Snow (”Unbroken Hero"). Players who successfully summon these characters will also receive a Lightning-themed companion spirit.
• New In-Game Bonuses: Players can obtain 16 gifts including a warrior weapon, ”Blazefire Saber," an exclusive Lightning ability card and a Lightning emoticon stamp by simply logging-in to the game.

Lightning has accomplished many legendary feats in FINAL FANTASY XIII...
However, after drifting to Palamecia, she seems to have lost the spark she once had...

The stage is set where it all began in FFXIII: The Hanging Edge.
The battles here will require you to utilize paradigms to succeed.
Travel across the Crystarium to power up your paradigms and see what new adventures with Lightning await you!

The story is a completely new story written for this event.
The latest adventures of Lightning are here for you to enjoy!

And so The Queen's reign continues.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

She must never be forgotten.

Lightning resurrection


Finally final fantasy xiii-4 will be coming out!

 

[Loona]

She will not be forgotten

At this rate, to the detriment of every other interesting character in the series not called Cloud Strife...

 

[Neptonic]

Who says Lightning can't strike twice

 

[Kyoufu]

FFXIII Lightning trilogy remasters incoming.

 

[Kouriozan]

So how do you get it?
Last time I heard legendary job costed like $70+ and I was glad I quitted that game before.

 

[Ydelnae]

Did she ever die

 

[Ahasverus]

They're totally remastering the XIII trilogy, aren't they?

 

[The Emperor]

Good! Miss XIII trilogy stuff

 

[OrionX]

 

[Perfo]

Every single time I see her and that initial area I get dragged back in. FFXIII best characters, lore and locations of the entire series fuck haters!

PS: mobius ewwwwwwwwww

 

[AlexFlame116]

Bleh. Well at least this means that they finally have an excuse to port the Trilogy.

 

[Ahasverus]

ayyy lmao

 

[SatoAilDarko]

First Post.

 

[Andrew Evenstar]

Seriously the best gif i've ever seen.

 

[kurahador]

Toriyama!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scrooge McDuck]

The game has had a collaboration with Final Fantasy VII before, yar? Yet that event doesn't give this "Ultimate Hero" card thing? Poor Cloud.

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

She will not be forgotten

Came to post this.

And this is amazing.

In Japan, Cloud was the first ultimate hero job, followed by Sephiroth a few months later, then Lightning, then Ya Shtora. I have all four and didn't spend a single yen on them.

 

[NeoCross]

My sides

 

[Arkeband]

So how do you get it?

That was Tidus, you had to spend like 100 dollars on the in-game currency and you'd get him. He wasn't an "ultimate hero" though it was just an extra rare job card ("legend")

 

[Malyse]

Reinstalling as we speak. Also, I want Mobius on Switch. And FF14. And PSO2.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

queen and feminist icon

 

[Strangelove77]

Never forget.

 

[Maxinas]

Is that Stella? She should be the one in the coffin.

 

[Breakage]

Lol, damn

 

[Caim]

So how do you get it?

That's no longer the case anymore since all Legend Jobs including the new Ultimate Hero are pullable.

Snow and Hope are boosted on the first banner.

Goddess Knight (XIII-2 Lightning) and Noel are on batch 2.

Boosted has a much higher chance (like 20ish%) and if you do pull a legend job on it will be one of the boosted. Once you pull both then it drops back down to the regular rate and you can pull any other legend like Judge, Mystic Sage, etc.

Magicite is also farmable now (20k a month) and they give out more Summon Tickets too.

VII will get a rerun with Cloud and Sephiroth ultimate hero jobs.

Stella is gone so no

 

[The Last One]

Is that Stella? She should be the one in the coffin.

That's Prompto! lol

 

[Blam]

couldn't be any more true.

 

[Ganon Dragmire]

Perfect timing since the Dissidia beta is over

Always and forever. The face of Final Fantasy.

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Good. Keep her in mobile land and as far away from XV as possible.

 

[Ultimadrago]

I hate Lightning and approve of this gif.

 

[R10Neymarfan]

At this rate, to the detriment of every other interesting character in the series not called Cloud Strife...

FFVIIR the cross dressing scene will be her. Mark my post.

She mustn't be forgotten

 

[KNT-Zero]

How can you resurrect someone who is basically dead inside?

 

[WickedLaharl]

 

[chrisPjelly]

She will not be forgotten

Destiny is destiny

 

[BumblebeeCody]

Who says Lightning can't strike twice

Lightning returns

 

[yunbuns]

Did they really have to call it that? I don't hate her but I feel like they make things surrounding her more cringey than necessary.

 

[Ferr986]

Mobius is directed by Toriyama if Im not mistaken' so of course its going to be cringey.

This would be an amazing troll. I hope it happens.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Is Toriyama overseeing this?

 

[HvySky]

So is Lightning really that popular? She has to be in order to keep popping up like this well after the XIII trilogy has ended. I don't follow Final Fantasy as closely as I used to but obviously they wouldn't keep plastering her face everywhere if it wasn't selling.

 

[ST2K]

Japan likes her. Toriyama likes her. That's enough.

"Costed?" "Quitted?"

Good. Keep her in mobile land and as far away from XV as possible.

Her signature weapon was an XV preorder bonus.
