Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII demo out today

Square Enix has announced that a playable demo for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII will be available for download later today.

The demo puts players in control of Lightning as she traverses the Yusnaan palace of her old ally, Snow. Players can try Lightning’s new customization options and the game’s overhauled battle system. For those who activate the Outerworld services and submit their battle scores of the final fight against Zaltys, the Siegfried outfit will be unlocked in the full retail game.

As a special bonus, players who download the PlayStation Network version will automatically receive the Utsusemi Garb DLC, which includes the Heavenly Fan weapon and the Kaminari shield item. The DLC pack will download with the demo and will be unlocked in the full retail game on February 11. The DLC pack will also be available to purchase for other customers later this year.

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII will be available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 systems for $59.99 on February 11, 2014.
