As we eagerly anticipate the long awaited release of Final Fantasy XV (or Versus XIII to those who've been in since Day 1), Square Enix has given us a little insight about the leading lads we will be road tripping with. The official page is in Japanese, so Google Translate has done some heavy lifting to tell us what we need to know. Here is the post translated (poorly) by Google.

So here's the jist. Noctis likes to play games, specifically topping high scores and confronts his enemies with his summoning royal summoning power. Ignis likes to cook and grew up with Noctis and has a mind for battle tactics. Gladiolus is the protective big brother of the group and (according to Dual Shockers) enjoys Coleman's camping gear, which is a real world brand that has made its way into the game (product placement FTW). Prompto enjoys photography and is the one that helps lift the team's spirits.
Final Fantasy XV releases on September 30th, 2016 for PS4 and Xbox One.
