Final Fantasy XV is set to receive three pieces of DLC that each focus on one of your three party members, Gladiolus, Ignis, and Prompto.
Episode Gladiolus is due out in a little over two weeks, on March 28. According to reports, it’s approximately 2-3 hours long.
I’m conflicted about this DLC. On one hand, I enjoyed Final Fantasy XV and want to see its storytelling gaps filled in. On the other hand, I’m not sure if Episode Gladiolus will give me the sort of story details I’m interested in.
Gladio has his own gameplay style, and the DLC follows him as he goes on a quest to gain the power to better protect Noctis. Anyone who played Final Fantasy XV should have a pretty good guess as to where this story arc fits, and it sounds like it should be focused on Gladio’s personal character development.
More character development is great, but how story-driven will it be? Will it be enjoyable and worth playing to fill in that hole in the story?
(I have the highest hopes for Prompto’s DLC filling in story details.)
Over the weekend, Square Enix released a trailer for Gladio’s DLC. It includes scenes that could be spoilers for the DLC, so maybe you don’t want to watch it… but you should at least listen to it to enjoy the fantastic music.
Maybe reviews will help me make up my mind.
What are your plans? Will you get Final Fantasy XV’s DLC?
