    The FFXIII event was nothing special to write home about, and was just a series of dull FATEs that Lightning helped fight (two of them were against enemies that are already in the game elsewhere to boot!), and a single cutscene at the end in Gridania, so for those who missed out, you're not actually missing out on much, and can now just buy the items anyway - besides, the event was technically meant to crossover with Lightning Returns which was being launched around the same time (and had a FFXIV miqo'te costume and Grand Company weapons for Lightning in that game). As that is long, long passed however (like, that was back in 2013) and as such, SE just added the items to the Mogstation, a pretty conclusive statement will not be coming back.

    Also, even if the event did hypothetically return they would not update it with new items (especially to give weapons for new classes/Jobs), as SE has never actually done this (when the FFXIII event was repeated after ROG/NIN was added to the game, they did not add new weapons in the event for that class/Job, and even when the items were added to the Mogstation, there was no new weapons or items added, it was just the same rewards as the event offered). This is also why more recent crossover events do not feature weapons but just gear and other items like glamour costumes.

    So I'm sorry to say, it is never coming back (and not surprising given it was the first crossover special event in the game, so it's long passed it's use by date).
