The Play Arts Shin action figure of Noctis from Final Fantasy XV is now available for pre-order. You can get it from both the Japanese and the North American store.
The Japanese version of the figure costs 26,400 JPY. Meanwhile, the North American version costs $219.99. Those who order from Japan will get it sooner—on September 27, 2025—while those who order from the North American branch will receive it some time in December 2025. This is when Square Enix sends it out, so the actual date you get your parcel may differ.
As a Play Arts Shin action figure, you can pose the Final Fantasy XV Noctis figure in any way you like. It also comes with multiple hand parts (including versions with Ring of the Lucii) and the Engine Blade. There is also an additional face plate where Noctis's eyes are red. This version of the Noctis figure has additional joints, which lends to a wider range of movement. For an additional gimmick, you can actually move his eyeballs so that you can make it look like he's looking in different directions than just the default.
Final Fantasy XV is readily available on the PS4, Xbox One, and Windows PC.

In a forum post by FFXIV Producer Naoki Yoshida, also known as Yoshi-P, Square Enix could be looking to take legal action against a specific third-party plugin. While the community was previously aware of Final Fantasy XIV's backend having some security vulnerabilities, this specific plugin has brought it to light.
The plugin itself allows for players to view another player's FFXIV internal account ID, which has raised some questions concerning security in Square Enix's highly acclaimed MMORPG. In the statement itself, Yoshi-P noted that Square Enix is considering several options. This includes the tool being removed, making it unavailable to download, and deleted. The other involves Square Enix pursuing legal action against the creator of this FFXIV third-party plugin.
Yoshi-P reaffirms in the statement that the ability to access internal account IDs are simply not possible within Final Fantasy XIV itself. Additionally, things such as payment information and personal information cannot be exposed using the aforementioned third-party tool. Ultimately, Yoshi-P discourages the use of third-party tools entirely, which go against the code of conduct for the game itself. As use of third-party tools can possibly result in an account-wide ban.
Final Fantasy XIV is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.
