You can either hate or love the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy, but we definitely cannot change one thing. Louis Vuitton decided to team up with an unexpected brand to promote each other. This famous brand started a very intriguing marketing campaign. It features Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII (and Lightning Returns)! This is unbelievable but true: you can see the 2016 spring-summer introduction on the second trailer below.
However, there is something weird. It looks like the game’s animations were just carbon copied. Sure, it’s not noticeable for people who are not gamers, but it’s visible for us! Square Enix‘s animations are alright – this commercial makes it a bit weird, though.
We can safely say that Square Enix‘s franchise has become hugely mainstream with this move. Let’s hope that Big Boss will not be featured in a Calvin Kline underwear-commercial! (It might happen, though, especially considering Konami’s moves this year…)
