Final Fantasy XV Demo boasts 3 hours of gameplay

According to reports, there will apparently be between three and four hours worth of content in the upcoming Final Fantasy XV demo.

That's according to a NicoNico Livestream with Square Enix (via Siliconera), where they also revealed that gamers will be able to drive around dungeons.

The demo will apparently take place in the Duscae region of Final Fantasy XV. It is said to include lots of systems that are still being developed for the game and even though we’re not talking boss fights, Square promises something even more remarkable will be included that promises to have a big impact on franchise fans.

When it comes to driving, you can control the car yourself or let Ignis handle it, using an auto-drive feature. Casual talk events are set to take place between Noctis and the others as well as you travel across in the car. Gamers can choose to skip this by opting to walk rather than drive, and in doing so they will increase the amount of time it'll take to complete the demo. Further reports talk of suggestions that gamers will be able to ride Chocobos, but this hasn’t been confirmed.

The demo will be included in launch copies of Final Fantasy Type-0 when it launches in early 2015. In other news, an impressive new trailer for the game was revealed during last week's Tokyo Game Show, alongside news that director Tetsuya Nomura had left the project.
