Final Fantasy XV Receives New Release Date

Some time ago, Square Enix held a conference to show some footage of Final Fantasy XV, alongside some equally tantalising information about their latest game. At the same event, it was announced that the game was planned to arrive on PS4 and Xbox One on the last day of September. Earlier today, Square Enix released a message from the director of Final Fantasy XV that confirmed a rumour of a delay that had emerged from the American retailer GameStop. The reasoning behind the decision was to prevent the need for a substantial update on the day of release to patch several issues that were currently affecting the game. Along with an apology for the delay, it was announced that the new release worldwide date of Final Fantasy XV is now confirmed to be November 29th 2016.

To see the message in full for yourself, be sure to check out the video below. It is natively in Japanese, so you will need to click the Closed Captioning button for the official subtitles. Will this delay affect your decision to buy the game, or are you happy to wait a little longer for this long awaited title? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
