Release date announcement announcement at pax and release date announcement at TGS.
They said both announcements dates were already decided and these are the two next ATR already decided, that would make sense. I'm still expecting a June 2016 release of FFXV.

No Tabata must rename characters without changing their personnality or plot involvement to mark his territory.

Litteraly peeing on Nomura's work.

Day 1 patch, available 1 year after release...

Huh?

Why, what's the relation?

I just think Square would want to space out their two big home console games.

They are!

DQ XI comes in 2016 and FFXV comes out afte hell freezes over.

Plenty of space in between them.

Wow only 65%? My guess is that this game will be releasing in late 2016... at the earliest. I have to wonder though, how much of what they developed for Versus XIII actually carried over to this project at all? From what I'm seeing it only seems like the setting and MC survived that purge.

That actually would be nice if the characters were females.

I think a 2016 release is still likely. It just depends on much time is needed for the last 40% of work and what that work is exactly.

They said it was at 55% almost a year ago.... But I believe in them, they'll have it ready for Summer or Holidays 2016.
