Final Fantasy XV to Get 'New Gameplay Experience'

In a December 24 interview with game news resource Game Informer, Final Fantasy XV director Hajime Tabata said that Square Enix plans on developing content for Final Fantasy XV until the end of 2018. Tabata stated that additional planned content will be related to the game's story, as well as the backstory of the game's world. He added that Square Enix is planning on a "completely new gameplay experience" for the game that will be announced early this year.

Square Enix previously revealed that it is developing content for the game into 2018.

Square Enix recently launched the "Comrades" multiplayer expansion for the game last November, which adds a cooperative multiplayer story to the game set during the game's 10-year timeskip near the end of the story. Square Enix also launched the "Episode Ignis" DLC last month, and will release the game on Windows PC this year. The Monster of the Deep PS VR game released on November 21, and the "Pocket Edition" of the game also shipped last fall.

Tabata earlier said last September that the game has "achieved over 6.5 million units" worldwide. Tabata didn't specify if the number is combined digital sales and shipments (as with previous milestone announcements for the game) or another metric.

Final Fantasy XV went on sale worldwide for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November 2016.
