I imagine that's been in the works for a while anyways.
AGNI'S PHILOSOPHY is XVI. #Believe

But that's what's going to happen, it'll ship, finished or not
They have plenty of time to squash bugs and apply polish though, so I'm not really afraid of it.

That means it can be our first real, modern AAA Final Fantasy. Full of bugs, glitches and needing day 1 patches!But that's what's going to happen, it'll ship, finished or not

Yay 😐

Curious as to what the original XV was intended to be.
This game is different.

Ikr! After all, we can see this happen! Look at what happened for the Kara tech demo.

Final Fantasy XV 2.0
I would bet a lot of money on Agni's Philosophy but I hope it is something totally new that we have never seen before. Hopefully Verendus is right

If what Verendus said was true, they've been planning XVI for a while now. Makes sense considering FFXV didn't start out as a mainline title.
Ubisoft's Final Fantasy XV!

Why is everyone expecting delay for the game? I don't recall delays happening for the other mainline FF in the past, isn't it?

Just because ever game nowadays seems to get delayed. I don't think it will get delayed due to Uncovered. They have to be pretty damn sure it is reaching that date to have a whole event around the date

Yeah, that's what I'm expecting too! #Believe

Yeah, I think whatever date they announce at the end of March will be the day it comes out. There will be no further delays.
Yeah it will come out regardless if it's ready or not.
Well, what's FFXVI now
This post from Verendus from early 2013 is strange, though, as he mentions Versus and "FF15 and FF16" and it seems as if that "FF15" is not the same as XVersus. "FF16" would be FFXVII now. Either he had wrong information or didn't want to give away the fact that Versus would be renamed to FFXV. But then what did he mean with "exclusive release"? Sometimes I feel he just knows of rough outlines of certain studios' plans, but not the exact titles. Maybe he thought a next-gen FFVII or FFX spin-off was a future mainline one.

You can have my account deleted if this information turns out to be inaccurate. News is fresh on this and I'm really confident about it. FF15 and FF16 are underway, both next generation projects. There's a chance FF15, in particular, may be an exclusive release. Kind of. And with that, I'm off to sleep.
Guys, they're not going to announce a release date unless they're 99% confident they'll hit it and they're not going to release an unfinished game. The game's been in some stage of development for a decade now: if they were going to do the former there'd have been a whole string of missed dates over the past few years, and if the latter we'd already be playing a broken version of it. You don't keep a game in development this long to rush it at the last.

FFXII was delayed several times and released 2 years later than originally planned.

Competition is too strong in November, it wouldnt stand a chance even if it was the best FF game of all time.

Yeah I think several FFs got delayed, including IX and XII. But I think he meant a delay after a precise release date (down to the day) has been announced. Once FFXII was announced for March 16, 2006 it was not delayed any longer.
The first release window for FFXII was Fiscal Year 2003 before Square even merged with Enix.

After having explicitly stated a release date, like if it was set in stone? Sorry, I didn't followed much news on this one, since I didn't had a ps2 at the time...

September 30 isn't far away at all.. but it feels sooo far away at the same time
Wait, you're Greek AND your Birthday is on September the 30th? Are you me? Did I make a second account when I was drunk? I don't even drink?

Most of us will feel that way.. I shed a tear at the goddamn demo when I heard Somnus as the menu theme.

It's a very typical thing these days.Almost all AAA games seem to have at least one delay after the release date announcement.
I will actually be surprised if there's no delay.

Guess the mods have to delete Verendus' account.

For Japan they announced a Summer 2004 release, then Winter 2004, then Spring 2005 and lastly Spring 2006 (announced at The Square Enix Party 2005 - similar to the Uncovered event, basically).

But yeah, they didn't name an exact date until the final March 16, 2006 one.

I love this gif, Tabata do Noctis Justice. It's crazy how Tabata ascension to power happened. I do wish him the best of luck because restoring the brand back is no easy feat and his only shot at being a director is on the line. The pressure must be insane.. Last thing he wants is to return back to handheld.

Let's hope FFXV won't end like this case ! I didn't know the game was pushed back like 3 times before coming out! My heart would stop 3 times before then ! Haha

They first announced a Fiscal Year 2003 release (which technically includes January/February/March 2004):
