Final Fantasy XV Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Rejoice! Final Fantasy XV is finally on the PC. The latest entry in the behemoth RPG franchise has been out on the current-gen consoles for more than a year now and the PC version brings a whole host of improvements for both the players who want to experience the epic journey again and for newcomers alike. This game was and still is, fully worthy of your time. Find out why in the review below.
Final Fantasy XIV is a fantastic port on the Switch 2, with some unique features that make the Switch 2 a great way to play.
Ten long years have culminated in a game that's a bit rough around the edges, but enjoyable. Kudos to Hajime Tabata for getting this thing done. For me it was enjoyable throughout, and I'll be seeing this one through until I have the platinum trophy, but I think that feat is reserved for only the most dedicated franchise fans.
Reviewing a new Final Fantasy game is tough. Final Fantasy 16 bears the weight of expectation, a burden that comes with the territory of its iconic name. Each loosely associated entry redefines what it means to be a Final Fantasy, and every fan has a checklist of what aspects of the series need to come together to make the perfect experience. So, can it live up to the titans that came before it while carving out a distinct identity of its own?
Final Fantasy XV is about adventure and excitement. There are oddities, and it's not the FF you're used to, but it's a good time with some good boys, and has an unexpected emotional resonance to it. Sometimes it seems like it shouldn't work, but it does.
How do the adventures of Noctis and his friends hold up? It's full of surprises, for better or worse. It is, however, a road trip worth taking.
A fantastic world and likable cast of core characters help raise up Final Fantasy XV’s poorly planned out storyline while the new style of gameplay offers plenty of content to explore.
Final Fantasy XV exhibits some fun action combat and a few examples of good level design. However, it's lacking in its other RPG elements, especially the pacing of the plot.
Seeing as it's been a decade in development, Final Fantasy XV is one of the most ambitious games ever created. Now that it's out, has this ambition steered the team in the right direction or did it get the best of them?
It’s not said enough – sometimes, it’s OK for games to get “fixed” after launch. Developers aren’t always able to control their release schedules, and when a game is better and more robust a year later, that’s a win for everyone. Look at No Man’s Sky, for example. In the case of FFXV, it was already an excellent game. Now, it’s damned near perfection. If you’ve been waiting, you get a great port, and one that’s content complete and still expecting more updates this ye...
But to I’ll definitely tip my hat off to this game. An easy 9/10 for me. The flaws are kind minor and it was partly my fault why the game crashed because I didn’t bother to save for a very, very long time. In a nutshell, Final Fantasy XV brought home the bacon for me. It really delivered (and exceeded) my expectations. This game’s definitely a keeper.
