"Enroute to wed his fiancée Luna on a road trip with his best friends, Prince Noctis is advised by news reports that his homeland has been invaded and taken over under the false pretense of a peace treaty – and that he, his loved one and his father King Regis, have been slain at the hands of the enemy. To gather the strength needed to uncover the truth and reclaim his homeland, Noctis and his loyal companions must overcome a series of challenges in a spectacular open world - that is filled with larger-than-life creatures, amazing wonders, diverse cultures and treacherous foes."

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel® Core™ i5-2500(3.3GHz and above)/ AMD FX™-6100 (3.3GHz and above), 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 760 / NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1050 / AMD Radeon™ R9 280. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. It also needs around 100GB of free storage, which is a real consideration on a 512GB drive. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.

Final Fantasy XV: Windows Edition launched on 6 March 2018, within three weeks of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Far Cry 5, Sea of Thieves and A Way Out. It reviewed better than all of them.
Released around the same time: Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Far Cry 5, Sea of Thieves, A Way Out.
