We already know that Final Fantasy XV will have a ton of things to do, and now we know one of those things will be controlling a flying car.  At the end of the Uncovered Special Trailer (posted below), there was a shot at the end showing the heroes’ car The Regalia sprouting wings and taking off into the air.  Some fans thought this might just be an animation for transporting across the map, but it’s an actual flying car you can control in the game.

As reported by Gameinformer, The Regalia is a fully controllable aerial vehicle, with the car traveling at high speeds similar to a jet.  Since the world of Final Fantasy XV is so big, transporting to areas won’t be immediate, so players will have some time to enjoy flying The Regalia before landing.  Speaking of landing, you won’t be able to just land wherever you want.  Like an actual jet, you will need to find some open space if you want to land.

Don’t worry about random encounters with enemies in the sky, because they have been removed.  As the Square Enix team said “We don’t plan on placing enemies in the sky…Rather, the vehicle will be dedicated for transportation purposes.”  Looks like flying The Regalia will be a fun little break from fighting monsters.

Square Enix also confirmed that the flying Regalia will only be accessible later in the game.  As explained by Square, “The player will obtain the flying Regalia near the end of the game as an additional challenge.”  While you won’t get the flying Regalia right away, that will only make it more satisfying when you’re finally cruising in the air.

While you may have to wait later in the game for a flying car, I’m sure you can ride a Chocobo much sooner.  We’ll find out what Final Fantasy XV truly has to offer when it comes out for PS4 and Xbox One September 30th.
