Lightning and company are not limited to the base statistics of their equipped weapon. Players have the ability to apply weapon upgrades using materials that enemies drop in battle or those found in treasure chest. There are over one hundred materials that can be used to upgrade weapons. These upgrades will boost your weapons strength and experience.
The latest issue of Shonen Jump in Japan gives two examples on how these weapon upgrades will work, using Lightning and Snow as their subjects.
Lightning’s “Blaze Edge” sword starts off as its simple self, but after apply upgrades, it morphs into the “Slash Carbine”, packing not only more power, but a completely different look.

More and more information is pouring out now! How do you feel about this system? It reminds me a bit of the weapon upgrade sytem in Final Fantasy VIII, minus finding out the magazines. I didn't like that system at all, due to the fact that I could never seem to find the materials I needed! Hopefully materials will be available more easily in this game (but not too easily!)
