You'll hear from all aspects of development from the artists and musicians to the designers. The team talks about long time Final Fantasy artist Tetsuya Nomura's work for the game, how the environments interlock with one another with monorails, and the focus for the game, which according to this video, "has been to make Lightning more beautiful and cooler looking than ever before."
