Review Monster of the Deep: Final Fantasy XV (PS4)
Carp diem
You know Square Enix spent too much money making Final Fantasy XV when it releases a standalone angling spin-off for PlayStation VR.

Hands On Will Monster of the Deep's Final Fantasy Fishing Reel You In?
Hook, line, and stinker?

Not bad for a PS2 remaster

You can actually see the game now

News They're Using Awful Final Fantasy XIII Characters to Sell Cars Now
Snow joke
A number of Final Fantasy characters have tried their hand at advertising in the past.

News Square Enix Is Livestreaming Moogle Rabbits to Promote Final Fantasy XII on PS4
Just so you know
We're not really sure where to start with this one.

Instead, the publisher will be presenting viewers with live rabbits cosplaying as...
Hands On Final Fantasy XII on PS4 Is a Strong Reminder of How Great the Series Used to Be
Sky high
Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age is an eye-opener. Playing it 11 years after its original PlayStation 2 release has made us realise just how ahead of its time the game was back in 2006.

News Final Fantasy XV: Episode Prompto Looks a Lot More Creative than Episode Gladio
It's got jet skis
Wow, Final Fantasy XV: Episode Prompto looks... different. Incorporating third person shooting with, er, jet skis, this additional tale seems to be aiming for some gameplay variation.

E3 2017 Final Fantasy XV's New DLC Is Like a Different Game
Yes, it's a third-person shooter
What the—? Well, we suppose nothing about Final Fantasy XV should surprise us anymore, but even after earlier reports suggested as much, this first trailer for Episode Prompto has caught us by surprise. It looks like the kind of corridor third-person shooter that you’d find on the PlayStation 2 – but in the...

E3 2017 Dissidia Final Fantasy NT Sends Us Flying with 15 Mins of PS4 Gameplay
That HUD is bloody awful, though

The role-playing-fighter hybrid was finally announced for a PlayStation 4 release last week, and this is the first time that we've seen the title in action on Sony's console. It certainly looks like a Dissidia game. Seriously though,...
News Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age's Story Trailer Will Bring Back Memories
A world at war
Rightly or wrongly, Final Fantasy XII gets a lot of stick for its story. Rather than being very character driven, as is the case with many Final Fantasy games that came before it, XII went for a political plot that was wide in scope. It still had its memorable characters, of course, but a lot of fans weren't so keen to latch onto...
