During an Active Time Report Event at Tokyo Game Show , Final Fantasy XV director Hajime Tabata spared a few words to discuss how the PlayStation 4 Pro would work with what may be Square Enix’s most anticipated title yet.

Tabata mentioned he was aware of the PlayStation 4 Pro’s increased power, and while it takes time to tune Final Fantasy XV to take advantage of that power, Final Fantasy XV will support PlayStation 4 Pro when the game finally launches on Nov. 29.

You can watch a video of Final Fantasy XV gameplay running on the PlayStation 4 Pro below:

In other Final Fantasy XV news, Final Fantasy XV will not be fully open-world:

“That way, you won’t get bored of an open-world as the rest of the game tightens, so we made it in a way that you’ll also get to advance through it as you have in conventional Final Fantasy games. If you play through the first half and only the main route of the second half, I believe the estimated play-time sits at around 40 to 50 hours,” said Tabata.

As for the PlayStation 4 Pro, it will not be upgradable. In a Digital Spy interview with top Sony exec Andrew House, he was asked whether he could ever foresee a PlayStation with upgradable components. House’s reply? “It's very tough for me to envisage that at this point.”

REVIEW SUMMARY
Final Fantasy XV
8.5
Combat, Plot, Characters Create Something Flawed, Beautiful, Fantastic
Despite it's flaws, Final Fantasy XV is a milestone achievement: not just for being completed, but for being completed with polish, aplomb and love.
  • Engaging main cast of characters
  • Fun, fast-paced combat
  • A massive, beautiful world to explore
  • The Regalia!
  • Continuous updates have addressed some shortcomings of the initial release
  • Major aspects of the story feel rushed or absent, particularly toward the end of the game
  • Stealth sequences feel out of place
