Final Fantasy 15 has received official product descriptions on both the Japanese PlayStation 4 and Xbox One websites.
The PS4 site, which features numerous images of the game along with details on plot and combat mechanics, states that the title has been "created as an action game." Describing the gameplay, the listing reads:
“The battles featured in Final Fantasy 15 have evolved greatly from the previous games of the series, as it’s created as an action game. The game switches seamlessly from the field to battle and the combat situation evolves rapidly. It goes on quickly with a sense of full realism.
“Also, it’s possible to fight not only with the hero Noctis, but also to switch with other characters. Furthermore, it’s also possible to perform a combination attack with a companion while enjoying the dynamic effect.
“Noctis can fight by making use of a variety of weapons and can move quickly within the areas by attacking enemies with stylish action!. You can fight monsters by cooperating with an ally. The ability to fight in collaboration with unique companions is an important feature of this game.”
Over on the Xbox One site, the description mimics some of the information found on the Sony site and begins:
“Final Fantasy 15 features a high action system unprecedented in the series. By taking advantage of the specs of next generation consoles, characters can move freely across the whole screen. In addition to that, the party battle system is now more advanced, allowing you to enjoy party battle by switching characters more strategically.”
Regarding hero Noctis himself, the page reads:
“As the royal heir of Lucis who has the last crystal in the world, the main character Noctis and his friends will suddenly be involved in the war.”
Final Fantasy 15 was announced during Sony's E3 media briefing last year and Square Enix said earlier this month that development is "going well".
