Although the release of "Final Fantasy XV" has been delayed until next month, details for the upcoming game has started coming out. A new gameplay video detailing the first few minutes of the game has been published online.

In the video published by Eurogamer, it can be seen that there are a lot of improvements in terms of the mechanics and design, as well as over-all graphics, of "Final Fantasy XV." It is not surprising, though, as publisher Square Enix has acknowledged before that the launch has to be delayed from the original September release to fine-tune the title.

The video itself has been taken from the first hour of the final version of the game, without any patches. It is unclear at this point if Square Enix will be doing a Day One patch for the game. Meanwhile, based on the footage, players will be in on the action right from the get-go. The story of "Final Fantasy XV" is being considered as one of the most complex stories for the "Final Fantasy" franchise. The plot itself is massive that the story has its own short film spin-off, "Final Fantasy XV: Kingsglaive."

Aside from the gameplay footage for "Final Fantasy XV," another franchise demo is expected to come out next week. The upcoming "World of Final Fantasy" game will have its own demo on the PlayStation 4 from Oct. 17 to 24. The game will launch on Oct. 25 in North America, Oct. 27 in Japan, and on Oct. 28 in Europe.

As for "Final Fantasy XV," the game will have a global launch on Nov. 29 on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is also expected that a PC port will come out, though not for a long time. Director Hajime Tabata has expressed an interest for a PC version of the game, although Square Enix has yet to decide on it.
