Final Fantasy XV, peso e contenuti della patch day-one

Square-Enix ha rilasciato maggiori informazioni per quanto riguarda la patch day-one in arrivo con l’uscita di Final Fantasy XV.

L’aggiornamento, chiamato Crown Update, avrà le dimensioni di circa 8 GB e aggiungerà al gioco base alcune novità di cui i fan non potranno fare a meno. L’update introduce nuove meccaniche di combattimento ispirate al trailer Omen prodotto da Digic Pictures e miglioramenti per la Wait Mode.

Per maggiori informazioni vi rimandiamo al change-log completo offerto dagli sviluppatori (in lingua inglese).

Final Fantasy XV sarà disponibile da domani 29 novembre su PlayStation 4 e Xbox One, nell’attesa potete già leggere la nostra recensione work-in-progress sull’ultimo capitolo della saga ruolistica.

Battle

Added actions inspired by the “Omen” trailer produced by Digic Pictures to the game:

  • “Shift (Warp) Drop Kick” (When daggers are equipped).
  • “Backward Shift (Warp) Magic” (Elemental Magic Activation within a short distance).

Below are examples of Wait Mode-exclusive abilities added to Ability Call to improve the Wait Mode experience:

  • Libra Speed Increase: By using Libra you can obtain information more quickly.
  • Wait Gauge Recovery: The Wait Gauge will recover upon defeating an enemy.
  • Surprise Attack Shift Break: When Shift Breaking to an enemy that isn’t targeting you it’s easy to destroy the targeted part.
  • Final Blow Shift Break: When Shift Breaking to an enemy with less than half HP, the damage multiplier will increase.

Additional battle screen effects added to make it easier for players to understand their HP status:

  • When HP is less than 25%, the whole screen will be covered by a light red filter.
