Paris Games Week, the second largest gaming convention in Europe after Gamescom in Cologne, Germany, finished earlier this month after showcasing some of the most eagerly awaited AAA titles, but publisher Square Enix has now released two brand-new videos from the event.

The first video features fans of the Final Fantasy series receiving the opportunity to come face-to-face with Hajime Tabata, the director of the upcoming Final Fantasy Type-0 HD and Final Fantasy XV. Additionally, people who attended the event were also shown some new footage from Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, with Tabata taking to the stage beforehand and welcoming everyone who was in attendance.

“Wow! We were really not expecting to be given so much information and what we saw today was really extremely beautiful, extremely enjoyable and Mr. Tabata was very generous with the information he gave,” says a member of the public.

The second video, on the other hand, focuses on the gaming titles available at the Square Enix booth during Paris Games Week, including Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix and Final Fantasy Type-0 HD. 

Last week, PlayStation’s official YouTube channel uploaded a video for Tabata’s Final Fantasy XV called “Tech Demo Vol. 1,” allowing people to watch some behind-the-scenes footage of the developers constructing the environments in the title and also the process of creating two character models, Noctis Lucis Caelum and Stella Nox Fleuret.

Final Fantasy XV has not had an official release date for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One announced, but Tabata recently confirmed that Square Enix does have a release date set for the game. Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae, a demo of the title, will be included with Final Fantasy Type-0 HD when the title launches next year in Japan, North America and Europe.
