The latest details for "Final Fantasy XV" will feature a new "Easy Mode", game information next month and if the latest title will improve the legacy of the "Final Fantasy" series.
Square Enix announced that "Final Fantasy XV" will feature a new "Easy Mode" difficulty setting as the Japanese game developers told Famitsu (via Segment Next) that the decision was made due to the sequels more action oriented gameplay and they felt that it will be too difficult for gamers, especially to the newcomers that are introduced to the "Final Fantasy" series.
This is the first time Square Enix implemented a difficult setting for a "Final Fantasy" game as series creator Hironobu Sakaguchi stated that he would liked to endorse having an "Easy Mode" difficulty setting in "Final Fantas XV", only if game director Hajime Tabata is comfortable adding it within the game. Sakaguchi added that he made a lot of feedbacks to Tabata and his team regarding "Final Fantasy XV" development.
Square Enix explained that when Sakaguchi first played "Final Fantasy XV", his first impression on the animation of the title was "creepy" and he has said as much. This led to Square Enix changing the animation style of the sequel to make more lively and less dark to appeal to the gaming fans, evidenced to the several trailers and game demos that were released in the past.
In other news, Tabata shared several details on how "Final Fantasy XV" will be the deciding factor for the continuation of the "Final Fantasy" game series. His reasons for saying this so is because if "Final Fantasy XV" will not sell to the gaming fans it could mean the end of the game series, Forbes reported.
However, Square Enix use of new technology in developing "Final Fantasy XV" will be the selling point for the game to the market.
Tabata stated his reasons for the game's future stating that pushing the technological envelope now has become incredibly expensive and prohibitively. He added that people nowadays do not play "Final Fantasy" games to necessarily see a technological marvel, but they just want a compelling and worth awhile game.
Lastly, Square Enix will be will hosting a new Active Time Report for "Final Fantasy XV" at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo on June 14-16, and will likely reveal more gameplay details and possible new game demo soon.
Previous reports stated that Square Enix will continue to make more of "Final Fantasy XV: Ultimate Collector's Editions" for the gaming fans and will do their best to make it happen. Not to mention a PC version of the game in the works after they have launched the console versions.
"Final Fantasy XV" will launch on Sept. 30 for the PS4 and Xbox One consoles.
