Assassin's Creed Outfit Now in Final Fantasy XIII-2

The long awaited Assassin's Creed outfit is now available for Final Fantasy XIII-2. As Square Enix announced last year, the outfit allows players to dress Noel in the costume of Ezio Auditore, hero of Assassin's Creed II as well as spinoffs Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

The Assassin's Creed cameo joins other recent efforts by Square Enix to extend the world of XIII-2, including a crossover with Mass Effect and a recent magazine campaign featuring characters wearing clothing from Prada.

Final Fantasy XIII-2's Mass Effect Crossover

The Ezio outfit is available for 240 Microsoft points on Xbox 360 and $2.99 on PSN. It's joined by two new Coliseum opponents, including Gilgamesh of Final Fantasy V fame and PuPu from Final Fantasy VIII. Gilgamesh is available for 320 Microsoft Points or $3.99, while PuPu will cost 160 Microsoft Points or $1.99. A free "Style and Steel" outfit for Serah based upon Japanese music group AKB48 is also available on both platforms.

Additional Final Fantasy XIII-2 DLC is still on the way, including story DLC involving Lightning set to be released next month.
