Square EnixĬonsider that before Final Fantasy XVI was revealed in September 2020, there was rampant speculation that Project Athia was secretly FF16. Mog also points out in a separate tweet that “Eos ( FFXV's world) and Athia ( Forspoken's world) are both Greek.” Is that intentional? Could it be the same world at points in time centuries apart? Or is someone at Luminous a big fan of the Greek language?įorspoken definitely looks a lot like Final Fantasy XV. There’s no denying the obvious resemblance between Athia and Eos, but that may just be due to the fact that they’re two of the only games created with this engine. It stands to reason that the team may have recycled various environmental assets when building the world of Forspoken, which is called Athia. FF15 was the first to use the Luminous Engine, hence the name Luminous Productions. The team created the Luminous Engine to build video games for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 generation of consoles, along with PC. The boring answer is probably not - but it would be nothing short of brilliant if this was the biggest Square Enix fakeout ever.įorspoken is being created by Luminous Productions, a subsidiary studio within Square Enix that was formed in 2018 from the same team that developed FF15. Is the Forspoken protagonist Ella Balinska looking out over the same stretch of land that Prince Noctis and his three best friends traveled through in FF15? There’s also a jagged, sharp-looking mountain on the horizon in both images.
You don’t really see that kind of thing in the real-world all that often, which makes it seem like these are magical in nature. Perhaps the strangest landmarks in all of FF15 are these rock bridges that arc across the landscape, almost like curved pipes sticking out of the earth. Even if this theory is never canonized, it still seems pretty convincing based on the visuals. Square Enix / is that the Forspoken world is FFXV's Eos like 1000 years before the events of FFXV or something,” they wrote. Certain parts of Forspoken bear an uncanny resemblance to Final Fantasy 15.
