The Future of Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy Real Time Demo

Square Enix released the above video as a tech demo for what they hope future Final Fantasy games will look like. The graphics are real-time.

The video was made in conjunction with Square Enix's CGI arm, Visual Works, and is made with DirectX-11 and very high end computers.

Square hopes that next generation consoles will have the specs capable of displaying graphics like these for all games. The visuals are very impressive. We will have to wait and see if next-gen game consoles actually have specs capable of this but this could be a glimpse into the future.

You can let Square know what you think of this art style and direction for Final Fantasy by taking their survey.
