Shortly after saying that the post-launch DLC isn’t content cut from the main game, Square Enix updated the Japanese Final Fantasy XV website to offer up more details on the expansions.
As you can see in the translated descriptions, three of the Episode expansions will let you play as one of Noctis’ companions, while another will let you play a completely new Final Fantasy XV:
- Booster Pack – Freely obtain powerful weapons that will give you an edge and make battles more exciting.
- Episode Gladiolus – A completely original episode focused on Noctis’ companion Gladiolus. In this episode, you can control Gladiolus as a playable character.
- Holiday Pack – Freely obtain a wonderful item pack that will make the game even flashier.
- Episode Ignis – A completely original episode focused on Noctis’ companion Ignis. In this episode, you can control Ignis as a playable character.
- Episode Prompto – A completely original episode focused on Noctis’ companion Prompto. In this episode, you can control Prompto as a playable character.
- Expansion Pack – An expansion pack that lets you play a completely new Final Fantasy XV.
It’s worth noting that all of the names are subject to change and, in the case of the ‘Expansion Pack,’ some Japanese outlets are referring to it as the ‘Online Expansion Pack.’
