Big swords? Check. Bigger hair? Check. The biggest boss battles you've ever witnessed? You bet.
What we have here is most definitely a Final Fantasy game - and the fifteenth title is pushing its distinctive flavour of gaming to bold, bonkers new levels.
You play Crown Prince Noctis, heir to a fallen thrown who must form a band of warriors to journey with him across the expansive world of Eos and restore the Kingdom of Lucis. Which involves driving around in a sweet convertible and smiting massive monsters. We don't really get it either, but it looks great.
A feast of FF news accompanies the new trailer: the launch date for both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One has finally been confirmed for 30 September, Florence & The Machine have been announced as having a song in the soundtrack (see the video below) and there's a free playable demo called Platinum, which sees you play a younger Noctis, battling demons in his dreams.
Grab a cup of something and watch all the extras below.
