‘Final Fantasy XV’ Release Date Moved To November 29

Those counting down the days until Final Fantasy XV‘s release date will have to add a whole extra month to the pile. The game’s director Hajime Tabata announced in a Youtube video that the release would be pushed back until November 29, 2016. You can view the message from Mr. Tabata below (turn on Closed Captioning to see English subtitles).

Mr. Tabata mentioned that what was originally considered the “Master Version,” the game that solely existed on discs, had been completed. But he felt that, as it is, a Day-One patch would be necessary to get the most quality from the game. That would be unfair to fans who don’t have access to good quality internet connections. So the decision was made to push the release date back and incorporate everything that the patch would include on the initial disc release. That is not to say that the team wouldn’t consider patches and DLC for the future, however. Mr. Tabata also mentioned including “some extra things” in the initial release as well.
