  A King's Tale: Final Fantasy XV isn't anything special, nor is it essential to understanding the main game you're buying into, so don't bust the doors down tonight trying to get a pre-order in. But at the same time, proponents of old school beat-'em-ups will enjoy a few hours of fun, which counts for something.

  Final Fantasy 15 is an incredible game,and one that I think most people will be glad they played- but at the same time, it is a victim of the context of its own troubled development and birth. Final Fantasy 15 makes a case for being one of the best, most progressive Final Fantasy games ever released, and a hell of a return to form for the franchise, but it can never, no game can ever, end up living up to the gargantuan expectations that surrounded this game. Go into it knowing that, and you’ll enjoy it far more. When you boot it up, stop asking yourself if the ten year long wait was worth it- stop asking that, and simply be glad that you are getting to play another Final Fantasy again, the first true one we have received in years.

  It's nothing special – either as a new entry to the narrative or as a 2D brawler – but it provides some depth to a character that lacked development which, in turn, further expands upon the personality of Noctis and his relationship with Regis. Despite some lazy moments of design and unnecessarily repetitive combat sequences, there's a couple of hours of fun to be had here with a surprisingly good combat system and a nice, nostalgia-inducing presentation.

  Este beat'em up de desarrollo y apariencia 2D presenta buenas credenciales, y se basa en un sistema de control bastante apañado que nos permite usar magia y realizar multitud de acciones y combos distintos con facilidad. Su nivel de desafío no es muy elevado, su duración es exigua y se echa en falta un modo para dos jugadores, pero para tratarse de un título de sus características y que además muchos han recibido gratuitamente por reservar Final Fantasy XV, no es desdeñable en absoluto.

  A King's Tale: Final Fantasy XV es breve y conciso. No es el mejor beat'em'up de la historia, pero combina ese estilo con la esencia de la saga. Además, está protagonizado por el Rey Regis, un personaje carismático que bien merece sus minutos de gloria.

  Comparado con otras propuestas similares, a la mente me vienen “Scott Pilgrim contra el mundo” y “Phantom Braker Battlegrounds” que comparten un estilo parecido, la verdad es que sale perdiendo pues apenas ofrece contenido u opciones jugables (como personalización de habilidades, subida de nivel u otros personajes que manejar) que lo hagan una propuesta interesante dentro del género.
