After 13 years of growth, the saga of Final Fantasy XV as we speak attracts to an abrupt shut with the launch of its ultimate story DLC, Episode Ardyrn. Square Enix had deliberate to launch one other three episodes after this, every specializing in a unique character, however they cut that plan short and right here we’re on the finish, my solely good friend, the tip. Episode Ardyn focuses on the spooky cowboy and his darkish previous. Here, have some dramatic soliloquising within the launch trailer.
Ardyn Lucis Caelum is the character we’ll play as on this DLC, see. That means a brand new solution to combat in addition to new storybits. I assume this contains shouting “It’s high noon!” earlier than taking pictures everybody. Player evaluations counsel it’s just a few hours lengthy, not the grandest untimely finish to a saga.
The deliberate DLC episodes targeted on Aranea, Lunafreya, and Noctis are useless and gone. However, Square ENix have stated they hoped “to deliver something that showcases what type of story we were aiming to deliver in some way, shape, or form” simply so followers might get a way for what may need been. Squeenix giving up on FFXV early additionally implies that they’ve not expanded PC mod assist as a lot as deliberate.
The large query is: is FFXV is an anime boy band highway journey, what kind of band is Ardyn touring with? I’d say he’s such a tryhard sulky cowboy that it couldn’t presumably be a twangly western band, no, however he doesn’t strike me as the kind to go for the glitz and glam of Dolly Parton-style nation & western. Perhaps a Fields of the Nephilim cowl band? A Ministry rip-off? Not something as cool as an anime boy band, that’s for positive.
Episode Ardyn is out now on Steam for £8/€10/$10, and naturally requires the bottom game.
