Xbox 360 Getting Exclusive FF XIII-2 DLC

Square Enix has announced some exclusive DLC for Final Fantasy XIII-2 on the Xbox 360. It's a bow for Serah called Azrael.

Azrael is a bow that is "named after an angel who represents spirits and death." It is supposed to have "the power to change the owner's destiny," but in game terms your Chain Bonus is upgraded when Azrael is equipped. That's the important part to most gamers.

Apparently, starting in Episode 2 of the game, you will be able to buy Azrael from Chocolina merchants. Square has also released a trailer that shows the new bow in action alongside some other gameplay. See it here.

The Final Fantasy franchise has long been associated with the PlayStation consoles and is generally more successful in that arena, so maybe that's why Square is giving a little love to the Xbox 360. It's only a weapon, however, so who knows if it will make any difference as far as sales go.

Azrael will cost 80 MSP ($1.00 in layman's terms) and will be available shortly after the game releases in February 2012.
