Final Fantasy XV

Final Fantasy XV is being developed by Square-Enix as part of the company's Fabula Nova Crystallis project. Originally revealed as a PlayStation 3 exclusive entitled Final Fantasy Versus XIII, it was later re-announced during E3 2013 that its name had changed, and it had become the next game in the core Final Fantasy franchise. It will be released on both thePlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The story revolves around a prince, Noctis Lucis Caelum, who is the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Lucis. Lucis has become more modernized than other nations, to the point where it resembles a contemporary city of modern Earth. It has isolated itself from the world in the process. The game's setting involves a war between Lucis and another nation called Niflheim as they fight for control of the world's last crystal, which Lucis possesses. The game begins after the end of a long cold war between warring nations and the world's crystals are involved in these conflicts in some way.

Noctis is the last heir to the throne of a dynasty who are in charge of protecting the last crystal, and he has to protect the city from an enemy nation trying to steal the crystal. He is able to wield multiple swords, spears, and lances by materializing them out of thin air and controlling them with telekinesis. His weapons can also be used as shields. Noctis also has the ability to teleport and move at high speeds. His eyes change color from blue to red during battle, which is related to his teleportation ability.

Most of Noctis's party consists of his childhood friends: Ignis Stupeo Scientia, a strategist for the royal family who fights with a katana, Gladiolus Amicitia, a bodyguard of the royal family who fights bare-handed and with a giant greatsword, and Prompto Argentum, a foreign fugitive who wields firearms, despite their illegal status in Lucis. There is also Cor Leonis, a middle-aged military man who is sworn to serve Noctis and his father.

Noctis finds a counterpart in Stella Nox Fleuret, who is implied to be royalty like him, though from another nation. Just like Noctis, Stella is shown to be able to fight by materializing weapons out of thin air. Noctis and Stella seem reluctant to fight each other and her exact affiliation with him is unknown. The two of them talk about how they are both able to "see the light", implying that they have similar powers. Noctis is shy but hides it by acting cool, while Stella seems to have had a much better upbringing.

The player has direct control over one character, Noctis, with assistance from AI companion party members. Party members can also team up for more powerful attacks.

In early iterations of the game, the game would end immediately if Noctis died in battle, though that may change for the final version.

The primary mode of travel around the game's world is a car. Though the player can exit the car and explore the world on foot, the world is large enough enough foot travel between destinations isn't practical. The player is able to drive the car manually, or set driving to auto. When driving is being directed by the game, the player can still look around the world as it passes by for secrets.

Noctis has a special teleportation ability that allows him to warp between select points in the environment. When a cursor highlights a visible location that Noctis can warp to, the player can make him teleport to that spot.
