You really expect Lightning to come back? Lightning returns, what a preposterous thought!

The devs have given their response to this

Greetings,

We do not currently have any plans to hold another Lightning Returns: FINAL FANTASY XIII collaboration event, and we do not have any plans to add Lightning’s hairstyle to the Aesthetician or make it available from event vendors.

yaaay...lucky me then...

They don't currently have plans to repeat it, but it's still possible they could decide to if enough people seem to want it, so it's worth periodically reminding them about here on the forums. It was a popular event with popular rewards. Many people who either missed it or weren't high-level enough for its later stages would like a repeat. (I myself fall into the later category. I got all the way up to the level 45 quest on one of my characters, but only the early stages of it on my other two characters, including the one I play the most.)

My vote: Have the FFXIII:LR tie-in event repeat as an annual thing until it's time to replace it with a FFXV tie-in event (which could then itself become an annual thing).

So, I have been asking for this since I found out about it, started after it was over, seems they are doing it again, does anyone have any advice or information about the event, comments etc also welcome

Basically, it's a set of four separate quests, started by reporter NPCs in each of the three cities. Each quest involves having to go out and find a specific FATE where Lightning will appear and will fight in the battle. Assuming your participation counted each time will gain you a special item which you take back to the NPC who gave you the quest for one piece of either Lightning's armour (for female characters), or Snow's armour (for men).

The first set of FATEs also drop a separate item which you have to trade to another NPC found in Limsa Lominsa who will give you a FFXIII/XIII-2/LR-XIII themed weapon. Note that the FATEs that drop this particular item can be done as many times as you want, allowing you to eventually get all the FFXIII weapons, one for each currently available class. That's it in a (kupo)nutshell.

Oh wow, there's a FFXIII themed SMN book then? That's pretty cool.

Yes there is. It's made up of multiple models of Hope's boomerang
