SCHOLAR

In an age long past, when mankind flourished under the radiance of arcane mastery, the island of Vylbrand was home to a city-state called Nym. Though the history of that age tells of countless wars waged with earth-shattering incantations, it was the brilliant strategic maneuvering of Nym’s scholars that allowed their mundane army of mariners to throw back would-be conquerers time and again. These learned men and women defended the freedom of their tiny nation with their unique command over spell-weaving faeries, utilizing the creatures’ magicks to heal the wounded and bolster the strength of their allies.

SUMMONER

The beast tribes of Eorzea worship and summon forth beings known as primals, among which are Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan. Yet what is a god to one man is a demon to another, for the city-states of Eorzea see these beings as a grave threat to their collective survival.

In times immemorial, there lived mages who had not only the power to summon the primals, but also the means to transmute the primals’ essences, thus binding them to their will. Known simply as summoners, the existence of these men and women and their arcane art have been all but lost to the ages.

Kingdom Hearts III and Final Fantasy XV will be released for PS4 and Xbox One

Posted on by

Today, Square Enix announced at their private “The Future of Final Fantasy” -event that Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III will be both released for PlayStation 4 and Xbox one.  New details were also shared from both titles.

FINAL FANTASY XV:

  • Looks like it will be more male focused game but Square Enix will follow fans’ feedback.
  • It felt natural to bring the game for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as long as Final Fantasy XIII and XI were already released for both consoles.
  • The game will be very action based and less RPG. They feel that the new direction fits better to XV. Every FF is different, right?
  • Releasing sequels for XV is possible because the universe of the game is huge.
  • The main staff of Versus didn’t change significantly after changing the title number and moving to the next-gen development.
  • In new trailer Noctis is swimming underwater in the leviathan battle scene.
  • The city looks like a modern city with Venetian like architecture.
  • Stealth will likely be included in the game like in Lightning Returns.
  • The combat is very similar to Kingdom Hearts.
