Description

Final Fantasy XV (Japanese: ファイナルファンタジーXV Hepburn: Fainaru Fantajī Fifutīn?) is an open world action role-playing video game developed and published by Square Enix for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One home consoles. The game released worldwide on November 29, 2016, and is the fifteenth main installment in the Final Fantasy series. The game features an open-world environment and action-based battle system similar to the Kingdom Hearts series and Final Fantasy Type-0, incorporating the ability to switch weapons and other elements such as vehicle travel and camping.

Final Fantasy XV takes place on the fictional world of Eos. All the world's countries—bar the kingdom of Lucis—are under the dominion of the empire of Niflheim. Noctis Lucis Caelum, heir to the Lucian throne, goes on a quest to retake his homeland and its magical crystal after it is seized by Niflheim on the eve of peace negotiations between the two nations. The game shares a thematic connection with Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy, a subseries of games linked by a common mythos which includes Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Type-0.
