The holidays are coming and to celebrate, Final Fantasy XV will be getting a boost with the introduction of a free game update and its first DLC packs.
Detailed today is the first free update for Final Fantasy XV, an update which brings a NEW GAME + feature, giving those who have completed FFXV the chance to start a new game with all previous data in place. Starting the 22nd Dec, you’ll also be able to get a new photo frame feature allowing you to choose from a variety of themed photo frames that can be applied to and accessorised with Prompto’s photographs.
Additionally, if you are one of the clever folk who have picked up the Season Pass or Digital Premium Edition of FFXV, then you’ll also get access to the Holiday Pack and more.
The free version of the Holiday Pack (Free Version) will also be available for download next week, bringing a selection of useful accessories as well as a Carnival Passport for the Moogle Chocobo Carnival which takes place late January. Its full features include:
- Warrior’s Fanfare – A scroll of sheet music containing a song of jubilation that provides additional AP for earning an A+ in Offense outside of training.
- Nixperience Band – A device that stops experience points from being tallied, preventing the party from levelling up for an added challenge.
- Carnival Passport – An adorably adorned ticket that whisks the bearer away to a fun-filled carnival for a limited time.
- Choco-Mog Tee (available late January 2017) – An exclusive T-shirt featuring everyone’s favourite fluffy and feathery friends. Colourful, comfy and appropriate for any carnival-goer.
