Good news Final Fantasy fans as new updates for Final Fantasy XV have been revealed.

The new FFXV director Hajime Tabata unveiled some new game details for Final Fantasy XV as well as an extended TGS 2014 gameplay trailer.

According to reports for VG24/7, Tabata explained the new battle system and the now infamous “one button” revelation. He explained that it’s not as simple as continuously pressing a button.

“When you continue to hold down the guard button, you can basically auto-guard and evade, but it consumes MP,” he said. “You can’t infinitely evade. You have to think about timing, when it’s a good idea to attack or evade.

“Also, you aren’t invincible. There are attacks you can’t avoid. In those cases, there are also essential technical evasion methods.

“When you push the attack button, you invoke the standard combo. You can change the actions by using it in coordination with the directional buttons. The actions change depending on your circumstances—things like whether you’re guarding and whether the timing is right, or if your companions are nearby.”

Gamer Syndrome further reports that Noctis will indeed be the only playable character as the whole system has been built around his peculiar abilities and his interactions with other party members.

Meanwhile, the FFXV demo will be released on March 2015 as it is included in the Final Fantasy Type-0 HD for the PS4 and Xbox One and the following dates are set on March 17 in North America, March 19 in Japan, and March 20 in Europe.

The demo is called Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae and “includes elements from the opening sections of the full game, but alters story progression and more to create a unique first-play experience”.
