The Hanging Edge is a location in Final Fantasy XIII. It is a series of highroads and railways at Cocoon's outer rim. It used to be a bustling metropolis but was abandoned during the War of Transgression, and has since been a restricted zone. In the game, the train carrying the exiles from Cocoon to Gran Pulse is sabotaged and derailed in the battle between PSICOM and NORA. Lightning and Sazh Katzroy, who were on-board the train, have to navigate the ruined highroads to reach the Pulse Vestige where the fal'Cie Anima resides.
