Final Fantasy XV Latest News: Still In Development For More Vivid Visuals and Exciting Environment

 

Final Fantasy XV was a no-show at this year's June Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles although Square Enix did manage to announce that Final Fantasy TYPE-0 will soon be available on Next Gen Platforms including the Xbox One as well as Final Fantasy AGITO which will be released on iOS and Android devices.

According to Air Herald, the release for Final Fantasy XV is set for May 2015. The latest European release schedule from Square Enix, as reported by the Game Inquirer, includes Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (14th February), Thief (28th February), Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster (21st March) and Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (14th April). According to Examiner, Kingdom Hearts 3 and Final Fantasy XV, along with Murdered: Soul Suspect, were also listed with release dates set "sometime in 2014."

Square Enix has not yet officially committed on the exact dates when Final Fantasy XV, and Kingdom Hearts 3, will really be released. These two next-generation role-playing games were already announced at last year's Electronic Entertainment Expo. In a talk last February with VideoGamer, Final Fantasy series producer Yoshinori Kitase however assured, "We can't give too much information but certainly looking at Final Fantasy XV, it's not as if it's in competition with Kingdom Hearts 3 for resources or anything like that. It's quite far into development now and it is being given a very high priority within the company itself, but that doesn't mean Kingdom Hearts isn't."

Square Enix has confirmed that Final Fantasy XV (along with Kingdom Hearts 3) is still in development until now according to Enix Origin. The game publisher however announced that Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts 3 are being developed on DirectX 11, a graphics technology which would enable the addition of advanced effects and features. Perhaps there will be new news for the fans from Square Enix come September on or before the start of the Tokyo Game Show.
