What upcoming Square game do I need to buy to get this again?

Is it a preorder code or on disc?

 

[birthbysleep]

When you’ve spent your entire life looking out at the serrated city skyline, it’s easy to lose yourself in the sprawling Duscaen landscape. The prince and his retinue were halfway to Cauthess when their daydreams came to a sudden, screeching halt—the Regalia’s last gasp before giving out to the unpaved backroads.

Now they were truly lost in the landscape: broken down by the side of the road with the Disc well out of walking distance. The Archaean, Titan, would have to wait. He’d been dormant for ages anyway. The first order of business was getting back on four wheels.

Possible text from the backstory splash screen as the demo loads?

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, it's a code.

Final Fantasy Type-0 (Xb1/PS4)

Will be a code

 

[pszet0]

Apparently there's a new region we haven't heard of yet: Cauthess

woah.. Omnis Lacrima is a boss battle theme, nice

 

[Xemnas89]

Will the demo always be with Type-0 or is it some kind of preorder thing or possibly just a limited run?

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Can't until capable people will make the combat system shine on YouTube videos! Man the demo is just around the corner.

Edit: Xemnas89 limited.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

It's limited. You should probably buy Type-0 within the first month to be safe.

Spanish site Zona Red published their preview ( in Spanish), and includes video preview

[Ishida]

I KNEW IT!

 

[Desi]

I really hope this is just for the demo. No overworld music in fields would be terrible in the final game.

I don't know if having a constant over world theme would be too good. At least for a world map of this size. The same tune playing over and over gives me huge headaches.

 

[GreenMakoEyes]

I KNEW IT!

I hoped for it

 

[Byron Bluth]

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, it's a code.

Ok. But a code in the actual game case and I can buy it anywhere? Not like a retailer exclusive thing?

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Man, the combat system is such a bummer.

Save me team Osaka.

 

[Xemnas89]

It's limited. You should probably buy Type-0 within the first month to be safe.

I'll probably just have to stick with videos then because I likely wont be able to get it anytime soon.

 

[shinobi602]

Between this and Mass Effect next year, I'm going to be in action-RPG heaven.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

It's not retailer exclusive it's limited, gotta buy it soon and not take chances.. Ebay will probably be asking for A LOT.

 

[wmlk]

OMNIS LACRIMA has seemingly been the mini-boss theme from TGS 2014.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Between this and Mass Effect next year, I'm going to be in action-RPG heaven.

And persona 5. It's still on track for this year so who knows if it falls early 2016.

 

[Slowdive]

It's a code on a voucher. Not retailer exclusive but it's a limited first print run. It comes with the digital version too.

 

[Stereogatari]

Kotaku's so mad.

I remain optimistic. The game is obviously still a far way out, this is effectively an alpha/beta.

The majority of the impressions have been good so don't fear, you'll get to play it soon and judge the demo yourself.

2 and a bit weeks right? Hard to believe it's so near.

 

[Ishida]

Anyone has a screenshot of the yellow truck in the Chocobo ranch?

 

[paragonpro]

The only thing that has me concerned is that the ability to teleport might make combat to simple, as far as technical issues, id imagine the final game is still a little over a year from launch so I'm sure they will be ironed out, likely in return for some graphical performance, but still you never know, particularly with this game.

 

[ReBirFh]

This game is in development for 8 years and people says the demo was rushed?

Still I love RPG's and I hope it comes to PC too as I don't plan to buy a PS4 or XONE in the near future.

 

[Chance Hale]

2 and a bit weeks right? Hard to believe it's so near.

Only 10 days <3

 

[GreenMakoEyes]

to those lucky guys who played the demo, please tell me you can invert the camera.. please!

 

[GringoSuave89]

Alright, I think I need to cave and get Type-0. Anyone know if anywhere has a discount (Xbox One version)?

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

The game hasn't been developed for eight years. It's been announced. Biiiig difference.

Anyways, this is looking great. I'm excited to play it in a week and a half, it's going to be a blast. Not watching the videos just yet aside from a minute or two but am exciiiiited.

 

[SkyTurnsRed]

I got a different impression reading the article. Jason seemed to really like it, but was nervous that the tech would suffer from the hardware.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Perfection.

 

[pixelation]

I'm sure they will be. Unfortunately this is kind of a rushed demo to release alongside Type-0. I always felt this demo was more to show off the battle system and game systems more so than show off the world. Which still looks amazing.

optimization is usually the last thing done in development and we're still talking about a game that's at least a year away.

You're right!

Holy shit, you're right.

The game is in development for like 3 years I think.

The ccombat sustem looks great to me. I have said this before but more options (manual weapon switching) is not inherently better game design. the weapon slot system looks a lot better and more suited to a rpg to me. i hope it delivers

 

[Cloud Strife]

Apparently there's a new region we haven't heard of yet: Cauthess

That blurb...damn I can't wait for the full game!

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Two more previews added.

Nova Crystallis (Kagari) and RPGSite Podcast

There’s a lot to talk about – so rather than a regular article explaining what we played and what we thought, we’ve recorded a special edition of the TetraCast, our sister site RPG Site’s Podcast. This special edition focuses only on Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae, with a whopping hour and a half fo in-depth explanations and analysis of the content of the demo – all while remaining spoiler-free.

Destructoid

During a meeting with Square Enix today in Boston, the publisher gave me over an hour to delve into Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae, but it just wasn't enough time. I want to spend more time in this world, leaving no stone unturned, and now I find myself eagerly awaiting the opportunity to do just that when the demo launches alongside Final Fantasy Type-0 HD later this month.

 

[razgriz417]

Kagari is currently live on http://www.twitch.tv/gametrailers, reacting together with Damiani about PAX East news about FF14 and FF15. For now they talked only about Heavensward delay from May to June.

@ Kagari's squeeing about FF7 releasing 17 years ago

 

[Ishida]

I hoped for it

I'm almost certain that the E3 2013 trailer music will be used in boss battles against the Summons.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

@ Kagari's squeeing about FF7 releasing 17 years ago

Lol I'm liking this Twitch stream. The conversation is really nice.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Shouldve just put the demo in marketplace. Oh well 60$ out the window

 

[NoctisVsStar]

I'm almost certain that the E3 2013 trailer music will be used in boss battles against the Summons.

I'm okay with this.

Release window at the end.

FFXV won E3.

 

[Laekon]

Final Fantasy Type-0 (Xb1/PS4)

Will be a code

This sucks as I have no interest in Type-0.

 

[sn00zer]

Shouldve just put the demo in marketplace. Oh well 60$ out the window

The second part of your sentence is exactly why they didnt go with the first.

 

[chadboban]

Woah, wasn't expecting a blowout today. I know we've been saying this a lot but it still feels so surreal to be getting so many updates about this game. Can't wait for the full release!

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Shouldve just put the demo in marketplace. Oh well 60$ out the window

just trade Type-0 for bloodborne credit you won't feel so bad that way.
