Final Fantasy XIII-2 Fixes XIII’s Town Issue

Many fans were disappointed when towns weren’t included in Final Fantasy XIII but it seems from the latest teaser trailer that Final Fantasy XIII-2 will once again include towns.
The teaser trailer showed a short clip of the player running along a beach area but the mini map seems to suggest a hut area which is possibly a town. Fingers crossed for Final Fantasy fans that towns are back as it would help XIII-2 improve upon XIII.
