UPDATE 1: Some higher quality screenshots have arisen.
In English, Overclock is called "Lightspeed"
Recovery:Lightning can recover her HP at the expense of EP. It's a special spell that should be used at the last resort after a steady use of potions.
UPDATE 2: (from the Official Site)
Official Dead Dunes description:
A lifeless desert within which rests a holy relic
This region is covered with endless desert sands as far as the eye can see. Within it can be found the shanties which form a base for treasure hunters seeking their fortune in the arid wilderness, as well as ancient ruins said to conceal a divine treasure.
Many monsters with a character unique to the area appear in this region, such as the sand swimming fiends of the open desert and the undead horrors that lurk within the ruins.
Ability Shop and Item Shop screenshots added. It's called "Trading" on the official site for some reason.
Ability Shop - Lightning can purchase magic spells and abilities from a number of shops. Save up gil and surprise foes with a new ability.
Item Shop - Some shops sell potions, elixirs, and other consumables. Lightning can only carry a limited number into battle, so remember to stock up regularly.
Lightning's default garb, Equilibrium, has a balanced set of parameters.
The latest Jump magazine issue shed light on the Dead Dunes and Lightning's Overclock ability.
As some of us may already learned, the Dead Dunes is the desert area within continent, Nova Chrysalia. As the name suggests, this unwelcoming place has numerous ruins and perilous sandstorms throughout the terrain. Also, Lightning can slide down sandy dunes to navigate the area.
The Overclock power is said to retards the movement of foes. This seems to recall to what we saw in the 2006 Final Fantasy XIII trailer.
Please look forward to the game release this Fall!

The fashion brand, Roen, is known to provide costume designs for Final Fantasy Versus XIII. Interestingly, Sokuho@Hokanko pointed out that on the brand's biography page, the game is actually listed as Final Fantasy XV, instead. Perhaps it's a typo? Or maybe not!?
According to Gematsu:
How do we know it’s Final Fantasy Versus XIII and not a different game called Final Fantasy XV? The work was done in 2008, when publisher Square Enix announced its partnership with Roen. And Versus XIII is nowhere to be found in the company’s history.
According to the Wayback Machine, the page has listed Final Fantasy XV since July last year, at least. It’s interesting that it hasn’t been picked it up until now.
Until further notice, we shouldn't take it so seriously. It's better for a Square-Enix official to debunk it or confirm it, instead.
Thanks to Sokuho@Hokanko (via Gematsu)
UPDATE: The website fixed the typo and now it's Final Fantasy Versus XIII.

Fernehalwes from the official blog from Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn took some pictures of the magitek armor! The map and armor are still mockups, but Yoshi-P has already approved these designs. So, the only thing left for them to do is to polish it now!

Square Enix has released more artwork from Drakengard 3. The new images show off some of the game's environments and enemies as well as two of the game's main characters, Zero and One. Both characters were designed by Kimihiko Fujisaka, who also worked on the two previous Drakengard games as well as The Last Story.

During the credits for Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX certain images from Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, and Kingdom Hearts Coded were shown. Could this suggest the next compilation game? We'll see and we'll keep you updated!
If this game is any indication, it may be safe to speculate that Kingdom Hearts 2.5 may consist the Final Mixes of Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep along with Re:Coded.
What do you think? Too good to be true or plausible?
