    Dancing Chocobo The Next Active Time Report will be in January. Possible release date of Summer 2016.


    Square-Enix announced today that the next Active Time Report for Final Fantasy XV will be at the end of January. The event will focus on magic and how it works with the new battle system as well as giving story details about the Nifelheim Empire plus other details. The exact date and time will be revealed later

    In addition to this, SE released a 50 question survey recently in Japan. While most of the survey simply asked what fans were interested in the game, there was one interesting question of note. The questions asked the fans that were interested in purchasing both XV and Persona 5, that if both games were to release at the same time, which game would you prioritize getting?

    What is interesting about this question is that while Persona 5 has no official date, its slated to release sometime in the summer of next year. This question may be SE deciding whether to release Final Fantasy XV around the same time meaning we have a more narrow window for an exact release date for the title.

    So are fans excited to see how magic is going to work with the new battle system? How about the possibility of an actual release within the next six months?

    Colbert Persona 5 or Final Fantasy XV?


    If these two games came out around the same time which one would you pick up first? This is the question that Square Enix is insinuating with their recent Japanese questionnaire. Persona 5 is scheduled to release during the summer of next year so Square Enix may in fact be planning a summer 2016 release for their upcoming game Final Fantasy XV. The possibility of them wanting to know what other JRPGs their fans are interested in is also another option. In addition to asking what purchase fans would prioritize, they also ask fans what they find most interesting about Persona 5.

    1. Because it’s a JRPG
    2. The world setting is interesting
    3.The characters are interesting
    4. I’m a fan of Atlus games
    5. I’m a fan of the Persona series
    6. The promotion caught my interest
    7. I heard about its popularity

    Could we see Final Fantasy XV next summer? Which game would you buy if they were to release at the same time?

    I'm more likely to get FFXV than Persona 5 but that's because I don't like the Persona games. Great to finally hear how magic works since that has been conspicuously absent from the demos.

    My priority is getting both at once because I desperately need both of those games inside me right now

    XV definitely. While I'm not mega pumped, I do want to try it and I have practically zero interest in Persona 5 tbh

    It'll definitely be Persona 5 for me. I love ff, but the series has gone through so many changes that I'm not willing to pay full price for them.
    I'll pick up 15 when it's close to $20

    Persona has maintained a consistently excellent quality and hits all the right places for me, so it'll be day one. If they announce a female protagonist I'll go pre order it even.

    Persona 5 for me, but largely because it's for PS3 and 4 so I actually have a console for it. XV, Type-0 and Ikenie to Yuki no Setsuna are about the only PS4 exclusives I'm interested in.

    Whoops didn't realize I posted this in General SE and not XV, but I don't think it's a big deal. Me? The release date doesn't mean much for me at the moment and as of today I haven't completed one Persona game so I'll likely get Final Fantasy XV first.

    Oh, the thread changed.

    Then my answer is Final Fantasy XV. Come next year it would have been a decade since Final Fantasy Versus XIII was announced and I've been a Final Fantasy Fan (check out that alliteration) since 1997. A decade ago I'd never even heard of Persona, and I only started playing it last year. I've still yet to complete it (P3P). I'll only get P5 once I've completed 3 and 4.

    FFXV. I've never played a Persona game and other than some top notch bear puns I've heard about I'm not overly interested in them either.
