A preview of the "Final Fantasy XV" during Square Enix's event at Nagoya.

The most recent issue of weekly Jump Magazine has published a page of "Final Fantasy XV" showing more details of the game's characters' combat skills, special link attacks, and equipment menu.

The magazine revealed two link attacks that can only be triggered under unique conditions.  It also shows Prompto swap weapons with Noctis in a special attack while the other link attack shows Gladiolus, using a shield to vault over the back of Noctis.

Apparently, the game characters can communicate by exchanging weapons or through tactical maneuvers. The main menu for "Final Fantasy XV," further, reveals a weapon setup for Noctis, which includes the "primary weapon" selection that can be switched instantly between four different ones.

According to Attack of the Fanboy, there is also an "accessory" selection that allows one to equip three different accessories adding various effects. Noctis' gang will have a "command" menu that allows one to provide a series of commands, which can be triggered during battle while the "primary weapon/sub-weapon" menu allows one to use different combinations and implements of destruction specifically for Noctis to take to combat.

In other news, Square Enix released four videos yesterday introducing Ahriman, the Siren, Cockatrice and Acho in the continuing series "World of Final Fantasy." The new videos follow the previous introduction of, Ifree, Kotaimai, the Red Dragon Magna Roader, Zaphr, Baby Shiva, Werebat, and Deathskull.

According to Tech News, the mirage Siren, featured in "Final Fantasy VIII," focused on damaging enemies whilst attacking them in a way they could not use magical spells. Ahriman is a recurring character in the "Final Fantasy" series on both mainstream and spinoffs, whose most famous attack includes shooting beams through the eyes, and casting status effects on other characters.

Cockatrice is probably the strongest character that casts a fire spell at enemies, and also has the ability to charge another character's weapon. Acho, on the other hand, is a powerful mirage for the game, as it deals with water-based attacks.

The "World of Final Fantasy" debuts on Oct. 25, in North America, Oct. 27 in Japan, and Oct. 28 in Europe for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita.
