At this year's Tokyo Game Show, Square Enix made the formal announcement of a release date for Final Fantasy XIII-2. It's coming to North America on January 31. But lest you think the company has lost its penchant for the cinematic, the company released not one but two new trailers today.

The two videos, Despair and Promise, running on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 respectively, show off a bit of combat sandwiched between long periods of cinematic sequences. Check them out below.

      I am super excited for Square Enix to put pets and time travel in this game. I think they are the only developers really listening to their fans and showing that they love the game.

      I hate all other games, but I am super excited for this one.

      Ever since playing Nier I'm hearing Grimmoire Weiss everywhere. Until recently I never made the connection that Liam O'Brien did so many characters in games I've played (like Illidan from Wc3/WoW and War from Darksiders) :S

      After watching these trailers and getting an idea for the actual story in this game - I think it could work. I was very sour on FF XIII even though you had to push through 50% of the game feeling held back until you finally got to Cocoon and the battle system finally opened all the way and you could free roam.

      If they keep it opened up, have half a decent story (Time travel opens up a lot of possibilities) and the gimmicks they incorporate aren't half baked I'll enjoy this one.
