If you’ve been waiting for the PC version of Final Fantasy XV, then you won’t have to wait much longer. Today, Square Enix has announced that their PC version of the latest RPG is coming to the PC on March 6, 2018. And while we’ve known about this version for a while now, the released date was shrouded in secrecy. With the PC version, several huge updates to the game are being released. This includes native 4K and 8K resolutions with HDR10 and DOLBY ATMOS support. Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition is priced at $49.99 and is available for pre-order as of Feb. on Steam, Origin and the Windows 10 (Microsoft) store.
But that’s not all, as the rumored Final Fantasy Royal Edition was also confirmed for both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. This title was leaked and rumored just a week ago and now Square Enix has confirmed its existence. But what is it exactly? Well, think of it as a Final Fantasy XV Game of the Year Edition, because that’s exactly what it is. This edition is also priced at $49.99 and will be available on March 6, 2018, as well.
