UPDATE:
Square Enix has confirmed the game will have Mod Support. This was talked about previously as Final Fantasy XV game director Hajime Tabata wanted to add Mod Support for the game when it came to PC, but the announcement below made no mention of it, nor does any of the game store pages.
However, an email sent out by Square Enix advertising the Windows Edition of Final Fantasy 15 has confirmed Mod Support - as you can see below.
You can check out everything we know about Mods in the game right here, which we've updated with all the new information. No guarantees that Mod Support will be offered at launch, or whether it will be simple like Steam Workshop support, but we'll let you know more as it happens.
Original Story:
Hot off the heels of Final Fantasy 12 coming out on PC on February 1, Square Enix have announced that Final Fantasy 15 will come to PC on March 6 - and unlike previous announced will be the complete edition of the game with new extras and all the DLC included. We've got all the details below, including the minimum specs.
Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age coming February 1!
Here's everything we know about Final Fantasy XV Modding on PC!
Final Fantasy XV: Windows Edition will be out a month after Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age and the same day as the console version's GOTY Edition, aka 'The Royal Edition' and the PC version is getting all the extras too, which is good news. Including the main game, these include:
- A new first-person camera mode, allowing players to experience the game from Noctis’ perspective.
- All season pass content including EPISODE GLADIOLUS, EPISODE PROMPTO, MULTIPLAYER EXPANSION: COMRADES** and EPISODE IGNIS
- Expanded Map: Insomnia City Ruins – all-new side quests and enemies such as Cerberus and Omega will be available through the expanded map of the Crown City of Insomnia. Players will also take on the Rulers of Yore.
- A fully-controllable Royal Vessel boat, expanding the world of Eos and allowing players to explore the area between Cape Caem and Altissia. Players will also be able to fish aboard the vessel and discover new fishes and dishes.
- A new accessory that can activate the new action “Armiger Unleashed” - players will be able to unleash powerful attacks while the Armiger is summoned. After collecting all of the royal arms, players will be able to find an accessory in an unidentified part of the world, enabling access to Armiger Unleashed.
- More than a dozen pieces of downloadable content including weapons, Regalia car skins and item sets
- Archive – players can review the “Cosmogony” stories scattered throughout the FINAL FANTASY XV world. Additional local myths and legends will also be placed in various new locations, allowing players to obtain more information about the world.
- Quest to obtain and Strengthen Regalia Type-D
Here are the full Minimum, Recommended and 4K Specs for Final Fantasy 15. Please note, as suspected the game will require the ridiculous 100GB of Hard Drive Space. And if you think that's just 4K textures, 4K actually requires 155GB!:

Final Fantasy XV will be available for STEAM, Origin and Windows 10 for $49.99/£39.99 on March 6, and the Windows Store Page is up now. Unfortunately there seems to be separate pre-order bonuses depending on which store you go to, which is never a good idea and we're surprised Square Enix are doing it.
Pre-ordering on the Windows Store gets the "FFXV Powerup Pack: This pack contains items designed to power up the player’s performance in combat", Steam gets "FFXV Fashion Collection: This pack contains a selection of outfits for the prince and his pals", and Origin gets the raw deal frankly with the "FFXV Decal Selection: This pack contains an array of cool and colorful decals for the Regalia". So if you want power-up items get the Windows Store version, new outfits for the main characters get Steam, and some, er, stickers for your car get the Origin version.
No details yet on whether these will be purchasable in-game.
