Bravely Default: For the Sequel will feature bosses from Square Enix’s older DS RPG, Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light.

According to the latest issue of Jump, Lucifer and Beelzebub are included as mega bosses. Players will need to touch a black dragon icon which appears on the lower mini-map screen in order to fight each.

As far as actually gaining access to Lucifer and Beelzebub, other players will need to pass them to you via Wi-Fi communications before the demons invade your realm. Some of the finer details are a bit unclear at present, but we should get a better idea of things by the time Bravely Default: For the Sequel launches.

For the release of Bravely Default: For the Sequel, Square Enix is preparing a set of drama CDs known as “Reunion Festival”. Japanese fans will have access to an all-original script starting on December 25th, which is about “bringing the important people back together for a celebratory meeting”.

CD buyers will also receive a special download code for four costumes. These include a Dimensional Officer suit for Tiz, Bunny Bravo costume for Agnes, a Dukedom Civil Officer Apprentice outfit for Edea, and a rather odd piece of garb for Ringabel.

Back when Final Fantasy V and VI were in development (you know, in the 90s), planner Takashi Aki was working with Tetsuya Nomura on the RPGs. Aki recently did some cleaning up around his residence and came across a few sketches that were previously unseen.

Aki was kind enough to share the various photos on Twitter – you can find them above.

Square Enix tends to hold its Final Fantasy franchise close to the vest. The series hasn’t changed hands in the past, with Square Enix deciding to develop each new game internally.

Now here’s a crazy thought: how about an Eidos-made Final Fantasy? You may remember that Square Enix absorbed the company a few years ago, and is now a close partner as a result.

Interestingly, Square Enix has considered bringing in an outside developer to work on Final Fantasy – including Eidos. There have been discussions about the possibility, according to Yuji Abe. Abe said Square Enix would “think about” allowing an external team to take on Final Fantasy “if we find the right team of developers, the right people who really wanted to do it, and we had the right game”.

He told OXM:

Thanks to a prior announcement during a recent Nintendo Direct, we knew Nintendo would release a special collector’s edition for Bravely Default in Europe. The package was officially announced today, and the items included inside were revealed.

Following the news, the official Japanese Bravely Default Twitter account posted a brief message: “For those jealous of the European Deluxe Edition, we’ll make it up to you.”

What could that mean? Might a collector’s edition for Bravely Default be coming to North America as well? Or maybe Square Enix is just preparing something unique for Japan…
