Square Enix hosted a panel at PAX East and they revealed a number of significant details about their plans for the future of Final Fantasy XV. It’s evident that the company is putting in a lot of time and effort into this game to ensure that it stays alive in the near future.
There’s a lot planned for the game including the ability to create your own custom character who will then replace Noctis as the protagonist of the main campaign. A new side activity that players can engage in is to hide treasure boxes somewhere out in the world. These boxes become more valuable over time until another player finds it. Additionally, official mod support is set to arrive this Spring while a Level Editor will be out in the Fall. New content is also going to be released for the multiplayer expansion Comrades which will include new raid bosses, battle challenges, and more. Comrades will also be releasing as a standalone game this summer.
Speaking of DLC, some new story DLC content is set release through 2019 which will “realize a future everyone longed for.” These episodes will provide an alternate ending to the game. The four episodes are Episode I: Ardyn “The Conflict of the Sage”, Episode Side Story: Aranea “The Beginning of the End”, Episode II: Lunafreya “The Choice of Freedom” and Episode III: Noctis “The Final Strike.” Together, all of the episodes are titled “The Dawn of the Future.”
