While it's been no secret that Final Fantasy XV (formerly known as Final Fantasy Versus XIII) has had a troubled development cycle, right down to a director shakeup earlier tonight, that doesn't mean Square Enix was going to come to this year's Tokyo Game Show empty-handed. The publisher came fully prepared for a new trailer for the upcoming RPG. Beyond looking spiffy, it also confirms the leaked info about the game's demo from late last night.

The latest two-and-a-half minute trailer shows some more bits and pieces of the game's story, as well as more footage of the game's real-time battle system.

The end of the original Japanese trailer shows information for 'Episode Duscae,' the rumored Final Fantasy XV demo set to hit next year in March. According to the original Game Informer article (since pulled), the demo will come free with copies of the upcoming Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, also set to hit Xbox One and PS4 in 2015.

The North American trailer with English subtitles can be seen below.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
