Unlockable Special Costumes

We’ll list how to get them below, but first let’s go over how to unlock them for use in the game itself.

How to unlock DLC items to wear in-game:

– First, use the download code(s) given to you to download the DLC costumes & items to your console of choice.
– Second, you’ll need to play part of the game and after reaching an early point in the game open the menu. To open the menu press the Triangle button on PS3 / Y button on Xbox 360, then select the “Rewards Barter Shop” option at the bottom to collect your DLC items.

How to unlock free costumes in the game:

• Guardian Corps Garb: If you have save data from Final Fantasy XIII, you get a special garb based on Lightning’s costumes from Guardian Corps in that game. The save file has to be on the same console you’re playing Lightning Returns on to be auto-detected & unlocked. There are no special requirements for the save file at all.

• Etro’s Guardian Garb: If you have save data from Final Fantasy XIII-2, you get another special garb based on Lightning’s valkyrie armor from Etro’s Guardian in that game. The save file has to be on the same console you’re playing Lightning Returns on to be auto-detected & unlocked. There are no special requirements for the save file at all.

• Noel’s Costume Changes: Here’s a fun little secret. The look of Noel’s costume will change depending on which costume he’s wearing in the most recent Final Fantasy XIII-2 save file of the console you’re playing Lightning Returns on.

• Utsusemi Samurai Garb: Downloading the “Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Demo” scores you an exclusive piece of DLC to PlayStation 3 fans — called the Utsusemi Samurai garb — that you can use in the full game (it’s not in the demo itself, so don’t panic if you don’t see it). Again, this offer is exclusive to PlayStation owners, so right off the bat you’re getting something not everybody’s going to get, JUST for downloading the Demo.

• Siegfried Garb: If you can beat the Zaltys monster at the end of the “Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Demo” on Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 and you post your score via Outerworld onto your Twitter or Facebook account, you unlock the Siegfried Garb (from Final Fantasy VI) in the full game.

PS: Hopefully in Lightning Returns we’ll see the return of other fun cheat codes!
