The first of two Final Fantasy XIII games are expected to hit in Japan by the end of 2008 with the onslaught continuing in 2009. The long wait has not stopped a nice deal of artwork to drool over as the wait passes or more information comes around.
The following artwork consists of Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII characters, which can be seen below (credit to Ripten for the images)




What is not confirmed though is if this is straight from Square-Enix or some highly advanced Final Fantasy fan with great Photoshop skills. Either way, they are still great to look at.

Final Fantasy XIII Extended Cloud Trailer
NICE! I guess this is from the exclusive they released from Japan last month.
im a huge FF fan....but why does it feel like they got new people working on the art work for the game....to me this does not look that awesome.....compared to there other awesome art work from other FF games
This is OLD !! Saw them over a week ago
good fan art...come on, do you actually think this is straight from Square Enix? Compare these shots to every other FF concept art in existence (that's officially from Square) and you'll see that these are phonies.
psn id: gingo.... rather nice but i would rather see some ingame footage rather than just concept art
The second one for FF versus XIII,has my attention.
bjk
Can't wait!
This is obviously not from Square. it simply doesn't have that "Square Artwork Quality" in it...
I'm willing to beleive these are official simply because not every artist at square has to be a brillian perfectionist. I mean even the designs for FF10-2 were signifigantly lower quality than the art for FF10 when you compare them because they werent all drawn by the same person. They have to have artist trainees or interns because otherwise it's harder to bring up new talent.
Character sketches for the sake of the design process are not all fully rendered art, some are scribbles in a sketch boo that are colored in photoshop to make a point like the list image, some art is drawn directly into a computer with a graphics tablet, no paper involved at all which can often create images like the top two or three.
They look great
Even if these aren't official, I still haven't seen that FF Versus XIII character before with the brown/orange hair. I can't wait for both of these games, ESPECIALLY Versus. It's the reason I got a PS3 in the first place.
Interesting stuff but I was more interesting in the trailers female artwork.
cant wait for this game
