In a collaboration between Square Enix and Digic Pictures, the team behind Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, a new Final Fantasy XV trailer titled “Omen” has just been released. The word “trailer” scarcely seems to do the atmospheric new trailer justice: some outlets have been calling the piece a short film. Check out the Final Fantasy XV “Omen” trailer below:
The trailer features Noctis continuously losing more of his shirt, lots of surreal dipping through fractured worlds, Luna trying to fight off someone who may be Noctis, and a fluffy white dog that turns into something way less cute by the end. Watch the trailer, save a puppy.
The “Omen” trailer is less focused on giving us plot details than feeding us tantalizing snippets of plot than on giving us the game’s feel: modern, grim, supernatural, epic stakes, a prince with a destiny falling through time, mystically linked to a mysteriously magical woman whom he saves or damns or something… I’m not sure what to take from it except more hype. At least it’s not a ninety second hug.
As the Final Fantasy XV hype train builds and builds, do you find yourself expecting more and more? For more on Final Fantasy XV , check out the following hands-on impression pieces:
