Square Enix keeps the hype up for the Final Fantasy XV by releasing a new English-subtitled trailer for Final Fantasy XV that was showcased during the Tokyo Game Show 2016. The cinematic gives a peek at how the plot develops, introduces new characters and summons.

The four-and-a-half-minute clip starts off with a messy-haired, scarf-wearing guy walking up to Prince Noctis Lucis Caelum, who sounded like he was struggling, and telling him to claim the crystal's power and arise as the true king. A cutscene later, Noctis, along with the rest of his group, is shown to have met up with the same guy while on their way to board a boat back to Insomnia, the capital city of Lucis — the last remaining kingdom in the world with control over crystals.

The messy-haired, scarf-wearing guy was later revealed to be Ardyn Izunia, the imperial chancellor.

The crew then discovers through a newspaper that Insomnia has fallen and that the king was found dead after negotiations in the treaty room went sour. The article they were reading also said that Noctis died.

Outside the city, the enraged Noctis talks with Cor Leonis over the phone to clarify what he read in the paper. The guy confirms that his father, the King, is indeed dead. It was then revealed that what happened was not a one-sided attack, but that the king "waged war" with whoever he was negotiating with.

After a few melodramatic lines about his father and the role of a king, along with some encouraging lines from Cid, Noctis is shown to be confronted by Ravus Nox Fleuret, Luna's older brother. Ravus called him foolish and feeble, beat up Gladiolus and thus, the Prince readied for a fight.

A flashback where Gentiana lectures a young Noctis about the oracle and king standing together to protect the kingdom was also shown. The scene then shifts to Luna's speech about banishing evil.

The trailer then proceeds to a scene inside a train where Gladiolus confronts a melodramatic Noctis. Gladiolus tells him to get his act together and calls him a spoiled brat. The four of them were then shown running in an open field before they set up camp and ate cup noodles while seated around a bonfire. The group then takes off in their flying car.

So the story pretty much revolves on Noctis avenging his father and reclaiming his throne with the help of his crew and Luna. Since Ardyn Izunia is a new character, details regarding him are scarce and his intentions are unknown. It's also worth noting that scene in the new trailer shows him slapping Luna.

Of course, summons will not be out of the picture. The trailer includes the familiar faces of Leviathan and Ramuh. It also introduces what seems to be Shiva. She's not yet confirmed though. The other confirmed ones are Ifrit, Titan and Carbuncle.

Final Fantasy XV is slated for a simultaneous release on Nov. 29 for both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
