Final Fantasy XV Goes Gold, New CG Trailer, Season Pass Detailed

Today, Square Enix announced that Final Fantasy XV has gone gold. To mark this production milestone, a new CG cinematic trailer, entitled “Omen,” released today.

Omen is a conceptual CG cinematic trailer created by the 3D animation studio Digic Pictures, who also worked on Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV. Noctis navigates a rapidly shifting world, endless waves of enemies, a gradual loss of abilities, and a madness that brings harm to his beloved fiancée. Inspired by the world and story of Final Fantasy XV, the trailer depicts a nightmarish “omen” for Noctis’ father King Regis — a catastrophic future that must be avoided.

With Final Fnatasy XV achieving gold status, development will now shift towards creation of the Season Pass ($24.99) DLC.

The main focus of the Season Pass is three original episodes that take place during the events of Final Fantasy XV. Each episode allows players to take control of one of Noctis’ comrades in all-new adventures that offer unique play styles tailored to each character. Players can explore previously unseen areas filled with new monsters, and even obtain weapons that can later be used in the main game. Episode Gladiolus is the first new character adventure to arrive, and will be followed by Episode Ignis and Episode Prompto. Each episode will be available for purchase individually.

Following the release of the character episodes, Comrades — an expansion pack for Final Fantasy XV — will introduce a brand-new online co-op mode for up to four players which features battles allowing players to take full control of Noctis, Gladio, Prompto and Ignis as a group. Comrades will be available for separate purchase, and is also included in the Season Pass.
