The Requiem of the Goddess DLC for Final Fantasy XIII-2 will release on May 15, according to PlayStation Taiwan. The previously announced content is Lightning-centric, and also contains White and Black Mage outfits for Serah and Noel. As previously announced, the Arena of Eternity featuring Snow and Valfodr-centered content, also releases on May 15. Thanks, Gematsu.

The latest issue of Fasmitsu has revealed the next two characters for the Coliseum Mode in Final Fantasy XIII-2 as Snow and Valfodr. The episode for Snow, which is new and themed as “Don’t fight for me,” will show the emotional bond between Snow and Serah. Director Motomu Toriyama told Famitsu the episode will “clear up some mysteries behind the coliseum itself,” as well as learn about Snow’s mission as a L’Cie. Valfodr will be able to use weapons, magic and summons to the point where you will have to best him multiple times throughout the episode. Each time, he comes back at higher level with additional abilities. He’s the strongest, and “the last boss” you’ll face in the Coliseum and at max level will be the most “powerful monster in Final Fantasy XIII-2 as a whole.” Snow’s learnable arsenal consists of Hellflame, Hellspark, Hellstorm and Hellfreezer. Lots of Hell, apparently. The content will be released on the May 15th. Big thanks, Andriasang.

Final Fantasy XIII information has been revealed in the latest issue of Japanese magazine, Jump.

A character named Hope Estheim is included in the game, and apparently she holds a grudge against one of the main characters, Snow. He got his mother involved in a fight using boomerang-style weapons.

Guess she didn’t think that was kosher.

Vanille is the character who looks like a bit like Rikku, and she uses a yoyo-style weapon that she swings around. Her backstory is currently still a mystery.

Hope that got you gagging for the game again.

It’s out in Japan later this year, and the rest of the planet is getting sometime in 2010.
