News: If you are a fan of both Assassin’s Creed and Final Fantasy XV then you will probably want to check out this collaboration.

The collaboration between Square Enix and Ubisoft is in full swing now as the Final Fantasy XV: Assassin’s Festival in-game event is now taking place through January 31, 2018. It is available as a free download on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 and has Noctis and his comrades taking part in a Lestallum festival held in honor of a mythical hero who fought to resist the shackles of oppression.

The limited-time event will introduce gameplay elements inspired by the Assassin’s Creed game series, including nimble and acrobatic movements in the field, vicious assassinations from elevated height, and large-scale treasure hunts. There are also exclusive outfits including the Medjay Assassin’s Robes for Noctis and his crew, and the Master Assassin’s Robes for Noctis, the latter which is only obtainable via the Dream Egg from the Moogle Chocobo Carnival. Other in-game collaboration items include the Assassin’s Creed-themed Regalia items (decal and full body decal), along with a themed photo frame and filter that can be applied to and accessorized with Prompto’s photographs.

Additionally, the free game update features:

Noodle Helmet Outfit - this mysterious, famed Nissin Cup Noodle outfit musters up Noctis and his comrades’ energy and remarkably increases their HP recovery rate.

Timed Quest Updates - Additional limited-time “Timed Quests” have been added to the quest tracker.

Exhibition of Third Snapshot Contest Winning Photos - The winning photos from the third community Snapshot Contest are now on display at Galdin Quay.

Bestiary - A gallery where players can see the enemies they have defeated in battle and take an in-depth visual look at the enemy is now available via the menu screen.

Chapter Select - Players can now select and play various chapters from the main menu. This feature can only be accessed after completing the game.
