New Scan Features Cactuar, Enormous Dinosaur Monster, and More

New Scan Features Cactuar, Enormous Dinosaur Monster, and More

The latest Shonen Jump features a spread about Final Fantasy XIII, complete with new visuals of monsters and environments. With the release date set for December 17th, it's almost surprising it's just one spread, but then again Shonen Jump isn't the only magazine in Japan.

On the right-hand side of the spread is an enormous dinosaur-like monster that literally towers over Lightning and company. The dino is likely the largest creature in Final Fantasy to-date, if not one of the largest. Nevertheless it's unclear if you can actually fight the monster, or run up to it in-game. There is also a large Cactuar, and what appears to be a behemoth, much like the supposed behemoth on the highway in the original Final Fantasy XIII trailers.

The left-hand side of the spread features a few new environment shots, as well as Lightning's party. The environments are mostly wide shots, showing off some deep valleys and high bridges and towers. In the center Lightning appears to be dashing towards a plant, but it's also unclear if the plant is actually some sort of enemy.

Check out the scan below. You can also see the full-sized scan by opening this link in a new window.
