In Final Fantasy XV, magic comes in the basics of magic comes in Fire, Ice, and Thunder. Using elements absorbed across the lands and magic bottles, you’re able to purify magic. Items can also be used to purify magic, and it adds various effects such as healing attributes or status ailments upon use. Again, you can mix and purify all three elements to randomize the kind of magic you get. Noctis isn’t the only one who can use magic, as his buddies can as well.

The above images show a combination of the three elements, Fire, Ice, and Thunder, mixed with a potion in the Magic Bottle. This brings out the Thunder magic, but with an extra heal for Noctis.

 

007

There are countless ways to use magic. You can also equip elemental magic as sub-weapons for party members.

 

008

Contrary to regular magic, Ring Magic can only be done with Noctis when equipped with his Ring of the Lucii. There’s a variety of Ring Magic, but here’s a look at the Death spell.

 

009

Death drains an enemy’s HP and can take them out without leaving a trace. The absorbed HP recovers your own health. As for the monster that gets their health drained out, they’ll practically vanish away.

 

010

When it is night time, powerful monsters called “Daemons” show up.

 

011

The familiar Bomb monsters from the series will also appear as Daemons.

 

012

A powerful swing from an Iron Giant Daemon.

 

Daemons have extremely high attack and HP, so you won’t be able to defeat them like you would any other monster. Since Daemons won’t go chasing after you, it’s recommended to avoid them until you feel confident enough to be able to take them on.

 

015

The travel system will come in handy during Noctis and friends’ journey. The first is “Fast Travel,” which is basically a shortcut to travel back to a place you’ve already visited. This is useful when you want to speed things up.

 

013

014

The kind Cidney offers a service to bring the Regalia wherever Noctis and friends are, which is useful if you get separated from the car by quite a distance. However, keep in mind that you’ll need to pay for the service.

 

019

022

Summons, known as “Astrals” in Final Fantasy XV, have different attacks depending on where they attack. For example, the above images demonstrate Titan’s “Gaia’s Wraith” attack.

 

020

021

From a distance, Titan attacks by throwing giant rocks.

 

024

023

The following images show Ramuh surrounded by lightning. If he’s away from Noctis, he throws his spear to wherever Noctis is, as part of his “Judgment Bolt” attack.

 

025

When closer to Noctis, he pierces the ground right beneath using the spear.

 

016

017

Carbuncle uses the “Ruby Light” to recover HP. It also has the side effect of increasing attack and defense to go with it.

 

017

While the buff is active, you’ll see a Carbuncle icon on the status bar, along with a ruby-colored glow above Noctis’ head.

 

026

Next up is the recently revealed Moogle, which appears as a “Lucky Item” plushie in Final Fantasy XV. When surrounded by enemies, you can throw the Moogle plushie as a decoy to distract enemies.

 

027 028

029

The above images show how enemies that aggro onto the Moogle are indicated by a red glow.

 

030

You can also use Moogles offensively, by distracting enemies and creating a perfect opportunity to jump in with an attack.

 

032

If you play your Moogles right, you can even gather them together and blow them up with magic.

 

033

035

034

Lestallum is a bustling industrial city. The streets of Lestallum are filled with an exotic atmosphere. Regardless of day or night, you’ll always see shops in business and people chatting.

 

036

You’ll come across back alleys that will make you want to walk around and explore the area during your visit.

 

037

There’s also a bustling marketplace that is booming with business.

 

038

You’ll even find food stands that offer free samples of skewered meat.
