A detailed day-night cycle, some crisp looking environments, and a great sense of scale - all three of these things feature in Final Fantasy XV's latest trailer, which details the wilderness of Eos. From massive mountains to lively cities, the game's world holds a lot of promise based on what we've seen of it so far.
Eos is definitely a land that we're eager to explore, but really, we're just happy to be writing something positive about Final Fantasy XV for once. The title's been bogged down in so much bad press lately that it's nice to simply sit back and see more of the release - although it does kind of make us wish that it was still launching at the end of the month. Oh well.
Are you looking forward to discovering Eos with your bros? Strap yourself into the comments section below.

not going to play it on PS4. only Neo/Scorpio Versions or PC version will do this game's graphics justice.
So is this with or without the Day 1 patch they delayed the game 2 months for? More like a Day 60 patch then, ein'it.
Just 4 more weeks you guys! I took the entire week off and bought 68 cans of Red Bull already in preparation for the launch. I'm so excited for this, there's nothing that's gonna ruin this for me; September 30th can't come soon enough!
@rjejr That's... actually a pretty good question!
@Boerewors "I'm so excited for this, there's nothing that's gonna ruin this for me".
Your exploding colon might, after 68 cans of Red Bull...
@AhabSpampurse
I'm not gonna finish them in one night obviously... But I need some Red Bull to maximize my playing time in my only week off I have this year!
@Boerewors I'm pretty excited too, have been sInce the Type-0 demo. I just REALLY want it to be good... considering the foundations and the development time it'd be tragic if it was terrible. Have you seen Kingsglaive as of yet?
@AhabSpampurse
Nope, holding out till my Collector's Edition arrives. I wanna soak it all in when it finally launches this month. I haven't seen or read anything FFXV related because I don't wanna spoil the fun; I've heard there are several hours of gameplay online already made available by Squeenix, that's just ridiculous!
@ShogunRok Do you want to tell him @Boerewors or should I?
(And in the likelihood it's just a running gag consider me playing along. )
@rjejr
Lol, I know it's bad for my health mate, but I'm spreading 68 cans over at least 11/12 days (I'm pretty sure I can get an extra day or 2 off if I work late a lot this month). They were on a special, normally I wouldn't buy so many.
@Boerewors Wow, you do a very good job of staying in character. But just in case, seeing as how you didn't post for the 3 days this was all going down.

@rjejr
Omg... A friend of mine actually told me the other day, but I played along cause I knew he was trolling.
So... I made a complete tool out of myself just now :')
@Boerewors Wait, so you pre-order a collectors edition and the company you bought it from never told you? Better check on it, then reschedule your vacation time.
Looking forward to the game. Wouldn't describe the environments as "crisp" from what I've played though. Oddly blurry would be more appropriate. Hopefully this'll be a Neo title and will benefit from the extra power.
@rjejr
That's exactly what I thought when my mate told me, I figured Squeenix would at least send me a mail. And I'm not 100% sure, but I thought they charged my CC yesterday or the day before, so I figured it would even be shipped early...
It's pretty, but is it any fun? That's the real question.
@Boerewors Sorry to hear that. Did you buy the collectors edition that did not include the season pass?
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2016/08/final_fantasy_xv_ultimate_collectors_edition_doesnt_include_the_season_pass
Did you know that even if you bought the season pass it won't include all DLC?
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2016/08/final_fantasy_xv_will_have_even_more_dlc_outside_of_the_season_pass
Squenix is trying very hard to keep people in the dark.
I proerdeed the game in Janauary on Amazon. I got the "delay" email from them a week or so ago. I am very seriously considering canceling it, I can't take Sqeunix anymore, I'm getting Witcher 3 Complete instead.
@kyleforrester87 "Hopefully this'll be a Neo title"
You mean the real reason it was delayed. Too bad that isn't true as we know it needs to run on Xbox One. Maybe when Scorpio releases it will run better.
@rjejr of course it will be released on Xbox one and standard ps4. Just saying hopefully it's been delayed so it can include support for Neo, as that's the version I'll aim to be playing, since I don't think the standard ps4 is upto the task given the demos I've played.
@rjejr
This is getting worse and worse, innit? My biggest gripe with the CE is that the formerly "exclusive" Noctis figure went up for pre order just 2 or 3 weeks after I ordered the CE. I'm crazy bout FF, but I'm an even bigger Play Arts Kai fan (although lately they've been screwing us), so I had no choice but to order.... Turns out I can get it for $100 as well...
@Boerewors You mean November 30th.
@Skufflz
Rub it in why don't you...
@Boerewors Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I really thought you were just messing around. Since you weren't, decided I should bring you up to speed.
On the bright side, by the time you finally do get to play the game you will have forgotten all about this. The thing that really ticked me off was delaying the game until after Black Friday and Cyber Monday (the Monday after BF in case you don't have that where you are). The release date is the Tuesday after BF and CM. At that point I might as well wait for Christmas to play it. And if I'm going to wait until Christmas I might as well wait until a sale next year. Though my wife will probably buy it for me for Christmas.
I can't wait to actually get this game in my hands. Not that I'm particularly excited about the game, per se - there hasn't been a good Final Fantasy since IX, in my opinion - but more just to see how it all pans out. This game has had a tortured development, and there's people wanting it to succeed and fail in almost equal measure. It's fascinating. I want to play it more out of morbid curiosity than anything else.
@Boerewors This is my first Final Fantasy I did not buy the most expensive version off. It is way to expensive for what you get. The Final Fantasy World CE looks cooler for me and it less then half the price. I could not get Final Fantasy World CE it was not able to preorder somehow it is impossible to preorder with PayPal. And after I got the 3 standard reaction from the Square-Enix helpdesk it was sold out.......
Waiting on a review. Looks pretty, no doubt about that, but I've yet to see anything that convinces me this is easily the game of the year and one of the better FF games.
@rjejr My God just cancel your preorder, you don't even own a system to play it on. You're a 50 year old acting like a tween on the internet. Turn your phone and computer off, it's embarassing at this point.
