A look at Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII's desert location - the Dead Dunes

Jump has some new screenshots and information on Lightning Returns this week.

The latest report focuses on the Dead Dunes – the desert location set in the game’s world of Nova Chrysalia. This area is dotted with numerous ruins and Lightning can slide around to explore the landscape. The magazine also reveals a new ability for Lightning – dubbed “Overclock.” This ability can slow down time and is said to be her “ace in the hole” or trump card. The Overclock ability is activated through GP – a new type of point system.

If you look closely, Lightning is fighting some sort of dragon enemy in the sands, and in another screen is wearing what looks like a new outfit.

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is scheduled to launch this Fall worldwide.
