Platinum Demo - Final Fantasy XV
Platinum Demo - Final Fantasy XV is, as the name suggests, a free demo that will take players to the dreamlike world of Child Noctis. In the skin of Noctis, players will be able to learn to master several weapons and spells as well as to get behind the wheel of a car. In order to defeat the monsters of the dream world, Noctis will have to create links with his strange guide, Carbuncle. The scenario will be completely unique to the demo and will not be available in the main game.
Players who complete the demo will unlock, in exclusive downloadable content, the Carbuncle Summon for the full game when released.
The demo is available in the Xbox Marketplace for the Xbox One and in the PlayStation Store for the PlayStation 4.
KingSlaive - Final Fantasy XV
As you may have seen, some editions of the game include blu-ray and soundtrack of "KingSlaive".
KingSlaive is a CGI animated film that has been presented by Sony Pictures Entertainment and Square-Enix. This feature film aims to introduce the events of Final Fantasy XV by presenting us with a story that interweaves the intricacies of warring kingdoms, the principles of loyalty, and epic combat.
The film has a fairly prestigious cast, including the famous actor Sean Bean, (which we have seen in The Lord Of The Rings, Equilibrium, Game of Thrones, The Island, Silent Hill, Troy, Seul sur Mars and many others) who will play the role of King, le roi de Lucia, determined to protect his kingdom.
We also find there Lena Headey, another famous actress who has mainly starred in 300, The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Game of Thrones, who will play the role of Luna, the princess in charge of giving Lucis' ring to Prince Noctis.
And to finish this casting, we will also find there Aaron Paul (who many have discovered for playing Jesse Pinkman in Breaking Bad) who will play Nyx.
The film will be released under numerical format worldwide when the game is released. You can now find the trailer for the game.
Brotherhood - Final Fantasy XV
Brotherhood: Final Fantasy XV is a 5-part anime series. The latter will allow to explore the bonds of friendship uniting prince Noctis and his three companions and will also allow to set up the events of the adventure which awaits them in Final Fantasy XV.
The first episode is already available for free streaming on YouTube. The other episodes will also be released for free prior to the game's release.
