Final Fantasy XV now in beta phase of development.

I can't believe this is almost happening ; v ;

About time. Can't wait to play it no matter how it turns out.

In beta phase, this fucking company.

What's wrong with it? The game's development only started in 2012.

beta 2.0 announced the next year

@abtoxin: The game is releasing next year, lol.

Then it'll release in early 2017.

ok but don't be surprise it will be delayed

Incoming people who grossly overestimate how long a beta takes.

It's now just debugging and optimization, for the most part, the game is mostly done. I can see this launching in June.

Looking forward to this game, I feel like this will make up for FF13.

"Just" debugging and optimization can take a long time as well these days, I don't want another Witcher 3 situation. Besides bugs the graphics are pretty crazy and it's taking a long time to get it running smoothly, I hope they get it to a locked 30fps.

I refuse to get hyped, all the games I get hyped for get deleted - Final Fantasy, Zelda, Persona, Uncharted, No Man's Sky

;__;

Im 23 and I was 12 when this game was announced.

That is all.

Edit:

Actually, 13 after looking it up. Still, goddamn.

10 years to get to beta version lol.

Seriously though, the reboot and move to current Gen started in mid 2012, so until next year, you have 3.5 to 4 year of development which is normal for big RPG's.

Good luck SE and they better not disappoint.

Sweet dude. Hopefully comes to PC.

Guys I feel I must reluctantly point out pre-beta is not beta. It means they are getting ready to work towards a beta so it's pretty much still an alpha. But don't lose heart, by my calculations we will see a new FFXV demo around 2025. They will have had plenty of time to fine tune it by then and will probably put the girls back in and kick the emo boy band dudes into touch.

the story and characters in this game are gonna suck. I can feel it.

Tabata killed my hype with all the changes, this is not Nomura's game anymore.

Easily one of my most anticipated games.

interesting. No wonder you stopped being such an annoying ****. You grew up!

But anyway, I was still in high-school when this game was announced and now I already completed a bachelor's degree and work as some sort of web designer, dba and programmers. Depends on the kind of work I receive really because it's very varied/random.

Pre-Beta is Complete. So it is now post-pre-beta, so it is in Beta.

Nomura also sucks as well.

@ultimateimp: ignorance is bliss.

Anyone still waiting for this? FF stopped being any good at XIII.

Hopefully they can utilize the time to zip up Cindy's top.

WRONG! Final Fantasy stopped being good when Hironobu Sakaguchi left SE and then taken over by Nomura.

A game they announced in 2006 more or less, is in development since 2012.

A game, they made a 2 minute trailer for. That's what is wrong with that.

They announced Final Fantasy XV in 2013. Final Fantasy Versus 13 was announced in 2006, don't mix the two.

So this'll win awards at both E3 2006 and E3 2016?

....so it can't be good anymore...

are you one of those hipsters in the community that people refer to sometimes ?

Will not buy anoher main series FF. 13 WAS AWFUL. 14 is the only FF worth playing but it is a mmorpg, id reccomend to anyone.

@dobzilian: Thats your choice, however I will say that FFXV is not developed by the same team that worked on the FFXIII series.

is beta before the final product or is there another phase?

eh thats your opinion.Iv enjoyed most of the FF titles iv played. Also some would say it stopped being good at 12. Then again the "stop being good" easily translates to "the FF game I didint like"

Anyone who thinks they are going to release this before 2016 holiday is silly. They are going to want those holiday sales, though they might not want to compete Zelda U and Uncharted 4.

This game.

@uninspiredcup: why? Do you have a phobia of boobs or do you just feel that women just dress the way to dictate they do?
