With the hype for the "Final Fantasy XV" game still on the rise, Square Enix has released some new details about the day one "Crown Update." Furthermore, director Hajime Tabata also talks about some spoilers for the game.

According to Siliconera, in order for the "Final Fantasy XV" game to provide the best possible experience for its players — especially now that the game has gone gold — the development team is currently at work on making various adjustments as well as fixes to be released  by updates. The first among these is called the "Crown Update," and it has a lot of features that will improve gameplay for the title.

The camera has been improved in order to make it easier for the players to track action whenever they are in narrow areas. The "Wait" function — which makes the game pause when stopping command inputs — will now get an ability tree as well, making it possible to utilize in-depth strategic elements when playing the game.

For those who want to face off with more monsters, the "Monster Whistle" item will be added in order to call them out. New event scenes originating from the "Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV" film and "Omen" trailers will be added as well.

Lastly, for those players who like collecting in-game items, the recipes and fish varieties will be added along with a gallery.

Meanwhile, NDTV reports that according to Tabata, the disc version of the game that will be released on Thursday, Nov. 29 will contain everything from the day one patch, as well as some extra things. As such, he hopes that the company will deliver the "ultimate quality version" of "Final Fantasy XV" to all the players even if they do not play online.

"Final Fantasy XV" will be released on Nov. 29 for the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One.
