Final Fantasy XV is an action-RPG video game developed by Square Enix for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles.

The latest details for "Final Fantasy XV" will feature Luna as a future DLC character and a Nintendo Switch version for the sequel soon.

Game director Hajime Tabata has expressed his interest in Nintendo's latest video game console, Nintendo Switch as he told Gameblog (via Techno Buffalo) the impressive features of the new console and wants to make video game titles for it.

While Tabata did not mention a Nintendo Switch version of "Final Fantasy XV", it would be an interesting to see the sequel in a new video game console, since Square Enix previously hinted that they will add support for the PlayStation 4 Pro and the Xbox One S, not to mention a PC version of the game after one year.

Meanwhile, game producer Haruyoshi Sawatari teased a new DLC character could be added to "Final Fantasy XV" as he told JeuxVideo (via Dualshockers) that Noctis' love interest Lunafreya Nox Flueret could be a playable character if the gaming fans demanded it and will discuss it with the developers.

Square Enix previously announced that "Final Fantasy XV" will have a online multiplayer feature as a series of DLC as players can play as Noctis, while other players can control his friends Gladioulus, Ignis and Prompto. It has been suggested that this content will take players to completely new locations not found in the main "Final Fantasy XV" game, but Sawatari explained that the multiplayer DLC for the sequel is still in the planning stages.

Episode Gladiolus will be the first DLC to come out followed by Episode Ignis and Episode Prompto being the last one. Sawatari added that each of the character-based episodes will feature new gameplay elements and systems that change the way the gameplay works, based around the personality and the style of character that stars in them.

There are also clues on Luna's role in "Final Fantasy XV" as the cinematic trailer "The Omen" featured her fighting Noctis as he has somewhat been corrupted and died by his hand, much to Noctis' horror.

Moogles will also make a return to "Final Fantasy XV" as special items that can distract enemies. It can be used against groups of enemies that overwhelms Noctis and his friends as distractions and traps.

The only drawback is that gamers cannot use it against boss level monsters such as the Behemoth. Square Enix announced that Moogles are included in the sequel as "lucky items" to help players avoid all kinds of troubles in the game, especially in difficult situations and perhaps this is what the developers meant by lucky items.

"Final Fantasy XV" will launch on Nov. 29 for PS4 and Xbox One consoles.
