Final Fantasy XV's third expansion is out today on PlayStation 4, but unlike the game's previous character episodes, this latest addition offers a completely different experience. Indeed, the focus is on co-op multiplayer in Final Fantasy XV: Comrades, as teams take on missions to hold back the darkness and the monsters that lurk within it.
Naturally, Square Enix has released the launch trailer that we've embedded above in an attempt to get you hyped. The expansion is part of the title's season pass, or you can buy it separately for £15.99. You'll need Final Fantasy XV's latest update installed to get started, and the expansion itself weighs in at a further 7.5GB.
Despite our somewhat negative feelings on the aforementioned character episodes (nah, we didn't like them all that much), we're genuinely looking forward to seeing what Comrades throws our way. We'll hopefully have a review for you in the near future.
Will you be playing Comrades today? Call dibs on that super cool katana weapon in the comments section below.

You have to buy this, right?
@get2sammyb Yes, part of the season pass.
@get2sammyb Just checked the Store, you can get it separately for £15.99: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP0082-CUSA01615_00-ONLINEPACK000001
The trailer uses clips from the Kingsglaive movie. So the story for the expansion is actually set before the events in FFXV?
@ShogunRok It's a bit expensive. I wonder how many people will actually be playing this.
@WanderingBullet No, it's set during the period where Noctis goes missing. I think the Kingsglaive stuff is in there just to give you an idea of who you're playing as.
@get2sammyb Yeah, that is pretty expensive. If it's £15.99 then I assume it'll be around $20 for the US? If thats the case, it'll be better to just get the Season Pass for $25.
@ShogunRok Oh, I see. Thanks.
Wow this makes the season pass a steal. Frankly, I really did enjoy both the other episodes... Will be playing it.
@Feena How much was the Season Pass in the UK?
I couldn't find it in the US store. Anyways, looking forward to the review.
Ugh..the placeholder is up in the US store but it doesn't work. I was hoping to start last night. It looks like a lot of fun but it would suck if people level up super fast and leave others in the dust. I get Phantasy Star Online vibes from it which is an awesome thing for me, personally. Plus I like how the characters look like regular people off of the street.
I'm more interested in this than finishing the story, so will give it a try some time after work.
I think this unlocks at about 11AM PST on PSN for NA players. I'm not sure though.
Not something I'd play I don't think but interested to hear if it's any good...
Huh. As disappointed as I was with the base game, this looks cool as hell. I wish they sold it separately though. I don't want the bro episodes.
Is it better to buy the season pass to get this, than go the piecemeal DLC route? I'm dealing in American dollars. I may need to investigate this. @NinjaWaddleDee don't you want to understand Prompto's manufactured angst better?
@legalstep Nope. They had their chance to have a good story. Now I don't give a crap.
Im waiting for the game to be complete then ill play it in one time backlog is way to big.
So is the update going to be optional like the Assassins Creed update was? God i hope so
@legalstep You might as well just get the season pass. The bonus episodes are short, but the additional cost is quite low of you also want Comrades.
@omalleycat215 That's what I did.
Ew.... Just looked it up and it is $26.99 CND. Good thing I already have the season pass, but doubt I would play this one much.
