Should you play Final Fantasy XV?
Key strengths: The constant banter between Noctis, Gladiolus, Ignis and Prompto is the game's strongest connective tissue. Driving, camping, fishing and optional hunts make the open-world road trip feel like a lived journey rather than a sequence of quest hubs.

Pros & Considerations
Exploration
Driving, camping, fishing and optional hunts make the open-world road trip feel like a lived journey rather than a sequence of quest hubs
Battles
Warp Strikes and weapon swapping give Noctis strong mobility and spectacle
Graphics
Eos delivers some of the series' most convincing natural landscapes and day/night atmosphere
Music
Yoko Shimomura's main themes give the game's quieter friendship scenes and major set pieces strong identity
◇Consider
Pacing: The structure changes abruptly from open-world road trip to a much more linear final stretch
Time commitment: Long — about 60 hours by the catalogue median
