However, it’s unfortunate that we will never get to experience what was showcased back at E3 2016. It has been confirmed by the Lead Designer of
Final Fantasy XV, Wan Hazmer, in a closed-media briefing at
PlayStation Experience 2017 South East Asia in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia last Saturday (August 5) that the Prompto shooting VR was to merely showcase the power of the device.
“The Prompto Shooting game was actually a showcase back then. It was just to showcase the power of the VR – but we have Monster of the Deep! Can you imagine having a Prompto DLC and also having a Prompto VR. Right? We want to offer something very different for every single entry of Final Fantasy XV.”
Fans who were waiting for the Prompto-shooting VR, it’s time to lay it to rest as it’s been confirmed by the Lead Designer himself at PSX 2017 South East.
Monster of the Deep is confirmed to launch later this year and will also be a standalone title – that means you don’t have to get
Final Fantasy XV to play
Monster of the Deep.
