New Lightning Returns Trailer Let's You Select Lightning's Outfit

[Andromeda]

Square Enix released a new video today for Lightning Returns. Already seen in other videos and talked about frequently, is that Lightning will have vast array of gear to equip for battle. Each gear has different abilities for Lightning to see, meaning switching out in battle to adjust to the changes is important. Up until now, most of the trailers show only glimpses of the different gear. The newest trailer lets you select the one you want to see and see how it plays out in battle.

My understanding is that they included this costume mechanic to make up for the fact that Lightning is the only character you play/control.

Come to think of it, will this game have similarity to Crisis Core FFVII at all? you only controlled 1 character for the whole game, took on several missions (both essential and non-essential to the storyline), made different materia fusions, etc.
