Final Fantasy XV Gets New Locations & Monsters Shown Off

This may or may not be new Final Fantasy XV information to you depending on how closely you are following the titles and all the news and updates surrounding it. The guys from Square Enix did show off a few new bits of art, screenshots, and the trailer below showing one of the most heinous monsters to be back in Final Fantasy XV during Gamescom. This was on top of the new story bits of course but if you've been following Final Fantasy XV as closely as we have you would have known that already. You get a gold Chocobo sticker to show off to all of the imaginary people out there who will see that gift from us. Wear it with pride.

For the rest of you who are not completely up on the Final Fantasy XV we have our first looks at a couple locations in the game as well as how the Malboro is making a comeback. Don't get excited as this creature is just as nasty as ever and you can see it in action just a bit lower in the trailer. You'll also only see one here but during the Gamescom showing of Final Fantasy XV Square Enix stated that the area we see the characters wandering into in the video is a breeding ground of sorts for these monsters. As if one wasn't enough in Final Fantasy XV is sounds like these Malboros will be lying in wait all over the place and we'll have to keep an eye out or die ever so quickly and so often.

Final Fantasy XV — Malboro Gameplay

See what I am talking about here for the Malboro in Final Fantasy XV? Horrific creatures that will plague us with their Bad Breath all over again. Thankfully though we will have so many other areas in Final Fantasy XV to explore and most likely die in that the Malboros will only be a small bit. Also thankfully with the new screen shots and area descriptions below we will have some new big cities and dungeons to wander in Final Fantasy XV as well. Not only that but from the looks of things we are going to be staying in lavish seven star hotels to refuel when not camping with the bros. Final Fantasy XV will be kicking the basic inns to the curb it would seem.

Final Fantasy XV — Continent

Continent

The four continue their drive along the clear river, passing through the coniferous trees. Should they go full speed straight toward their destination, or take time and explore the surroundings? It is up to players to choose.

Final Fantasy XV — Ido

Ido

An underground dungeon with an eerie atmosphere. For a long time, this dungeon has seen no traces of human activity. But is there something else currently living here?

Final Fantasy XV — Lestallum

Lestallum

Lestallum, a city positioned in the lands of Duscae.

Using Cuba as a motif for the design, the vibrant city is full of people and life. A large building that stands out is the hotel. It’s probably a good place to rest and relieve some tiredness from the long trip.

There you have the new-ish monster and a few locations to explore in Final Fantasy XV. What do you think of it all?
