Final Fantasy XV TGS stage footage feat. Aranea Highwind

Final Fantasy XV took the stage at Sony’s booth today to deliver a quick overview of the game as well as a glimpse at new footage running on PlayStation 4. Following another look at nighttime gameplay in the open world, the demonstration took us back to a Niflheim base where Noctis and friends were forced to square off against enemy dragoon Aranea Highwind.

Previously we’d only a small taste of this fight from trailers and a small showing at PAX West but here we’re given a better look at some of Aranea’s battle mechanics and fast-paced, chaotic action.

Additionally, director Hajime Tabata detailed more on the game’s Wait Mode – allowing players a higher degree of strategy and control over their actions in combat.
