Square Enix officially launches ‘Final Fantasy XV: Pocket Edition’ on mobile

If you want to play the reimagined Final Fantasy XV game released in late 2016 on mobile, you now get that chance. The Final Fantasy XV: Pocket Edition just officially launched on both Android and iOS. It takes an episodic approach to the Japanese role-playing game with chapters released throughout the year. The first chapter is free but the future chapters will cost you. You can buy all chapters as a bundle for $27.99 or you can get Chapters 2 to 4 for $1.39 and Chapters 5-10 for $5.49 each.

The story follows Noctis and his three companions (Prompto, Ignis, and Gladiolus) on a road trip-style, open-world adventure going across Eos. You get more or less the same experience but on a more portable scale. Plus, the art style switched over to this more cutesy, chibi approach.

Square Enix game director confirms ‘Final Fantasy XV’ release date delay

The rumours are true. The upcoming Final Fantasy XV game will be getting that two-month delay we reported earlier. Game director Hajime Tabata is delaying Final Fantasy XV. It’ll be coming out on November 29 instead of September 30 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Tabata says they want to make sure the game runs as smoothly as possible when they release it.

"Our objective with Final Fantasy XV was to deliver a Final Fantasy of the highest possible quality to every single person who buys the game," Tabata said. "We have completed the master version but when it comes to that highest possible quality, we felt that we had not quite reached that version yet. In order to make this master version an even better product, we have been creating a downloadable add-on known as a day-one patch."

Final Fantasy fans you might have two more months to wait for the long-awaited Final Fantasy XV to launch. Rumours have surfaced that the new release date is pushed to November 29^th instead of September 30^th. Gamnesia cited a source said to be from retail chain GameStop management that the company has received date-adjusted promotional materials for the game, and that they have orders to hold these until after August 14^th. They’ve even shown an image with instructions on how to apply a sticker on an assembled standee with the announced released date on it. Kotaku also got the report and had another “non-retail” source to back them up. Of course, it’s still just a rumour until Square Enix confirms it or not. We will keep you posted for any updates.

Square Enix outs free-to-play ‘Mobius Final Fantasy’ for your smartphone

The new Mobius Final Fantasy game is one of the few times Square Enix outs a free-to-play game, especially one that’s geared towards your Android and/or iOS devices. This “custom-tailored for mobile platforms” game is made by the likes of producer Yoshinori Kitase and writer Kazushige Nojima, who’ve penned both Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy X.

Mobius Final Fantasy is an RPG that offers in-depth character customization options with a “job system” that will let you specialize in a specific area, which you can combine with different classes and help you in the turn-based battle system within the game. There will be upcoming releases within the game and it’ll be released in chapters to offer things like new in-game events, avatar items, and playable content. The in-app purchase option available for the game is for Magicite, which is the game’s version of in-world currency. It’ll let you use real-world currency to help replenish your money within the game.
