Final Fantasy 15’s demo will be exclusive to those with a copy of Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, Square Enix revealed. In fact, the publisher confirmed via PlayStation Blog that the demo is “intended to be a special gift for those of you who purchase early,” so only the first shipment of Type-0 HD will include the “Episode Duscae” demo.
In September, reports began circulating that Square Enix would offer the Final Fantasy 15 demo in 2015. Episode Duscae will feature around an hour’s worth of narrative content, and thorough explorers will get around three to four hours of gameplay out of the demo. Square Enix stressed today that the publisher is “never going to release [the demo] as a stand-alone piece down the line.”
Square Enix also divulged details on Type-0 HD’s $100 Collector’s Edition bundle. The Collector’s Edition includes a steel book case, 15-track song collection, 200-page manga set during the events of the game’s opening moments, 80-page art book and five collectible cards. Those that pre-order the Collector’s Edition will gain access to Final Fantasy 15’s demo as well. Final Fantasy Type-0 HD will launch on March 17, 2015.
