Free Final Fantasy XV Update Adds Exo-Suits, Chocobo Carnival Returns

Summer in Eos has arrived at last, as the new July update for FINAL FANTASY XV is available as a free download, introducing Magitek Exosuits for each member of Noctis’ crew, a new quest and more to the critically-acclaimed RPG.

This month’s update introduces:

• New Magitek Exosuits – granting 30 minutes of invincibility per day for Noctis, Gladio, Prompto and Ignis to help players take on the dangerous creatures of Eos. Once invincibility has worn off, players can continue to wear the exosuits in-game.

• A new quest, “O Partner, My Partner” – can be accepted from the Meldacio Hunter HQ after the player has completed Chapter 8.

• A new “Cross Chain” collaboration system – allows players to severely damage strong, defensive enemies by increasing the number of linked attacks. The Cross Chain system is available once players acquire the two Royal Arms: the Sword of the Wise and Axe of the Conqueror.

• Return of the beloved Moogle Chocobo Carnival – from July 31 to late September, players of all levels can once again journey to Altissia for limited-time-only mini-games, Chocobo water races and special Moogle Chocobo menu items at the Square Enix Café.

In order to participate in the Moogle Chocobo Carnival, players must own the FFXV Holiday Pack +, included in the FINAL FANTASY XV Season Pass and Digital Premium Edition, or the FFXV Holiday Pack (Free Version).
