"

At the very least, I can tell you that it isn't going to be released this year. I think we'll be able to tell you when we're making the announcement around PAX Prime, at the end of this month."

Tabata dropped the best indication of the Final Fantasy XV release date yet: "We can certainly say to people: it's not going to be 2017. It's going to be before that."

I think everyone was a bit worried after the Gamescom showing, plus Tabata saying it was only 65 % done but woohoo!

Your topic doesn't reflect the reality of what was said.

[Fox]

It's pretty much accurate though. "It will be after 2015" "It will be before 2017".

There's not much room for interpretation ^^

[Mirage]

It could be in 2015!

[Shauna]

Well, he did say it wouldn't release this year. This year being 2015...?

[Mirage]

did he really?

oh.

I'd be excited but a 2016 release is a foregone conclusion. But they must not be ready for a spring release if they're still not ready to commit to a date.

Shame. Currently it looks like they may be setting up for a summer/fall release. And I think that's just asking for the game to not do well.

Oh, it will do well. FF always does well.

Oh, for Christ sake, Square. Just say it's going to be some time in 2016. Because if you were trying to keep that much secret you failed.

Why's that?

That would be kind of clever, actually.

Hasn't pretty much every FF game come out in Fall/Winter? I see no reason FFXV to change that.
