Translated from a german gaming magazine:
- Lightning is the only playable character. The amount of items she can carry is limited. The story of other well-known characters still shall be told, thogh
-The outcome of the story will not change, no matter how long you need to finish the game or what you do during it. You have a time limit to complete the story, making it impossible to 100% the game duing your first playthrough
-"Battles are controlled via pushing buttons, this way you don't have to pay attention to menu selections but you do have to keep a close watch over your ATB bar."
-Character development will only be possible by completing quests. You'll receive pieces needed for forging armor and points that affect the remaining time until the apocalypse
-No QTE's
-You'll be able to recieve deco-accessoires
