Final Fantasy 15 Holiday Pack content update coming on December 22nd

Final Fantasy XV is getting a new content update come December 22nd. Owners of the regular edition will be getting the regular Holiday Pack, while season pass owners can expect a Holiday Pack Plus. They’re going to be filled to the brim with festive activities, outfits, accessories and more. Read on to find out what exactly you can expect.

Here’s what the Holiday Pack includes:

• Warrior’s Fanfare – An item that gives you more AP for getting an A+ in offense after combat.
• Nixperience Band – An accessory that stops your XP from tallying, making the game more difficult.
• Carnival Passport – A ticket that grants entry to the carnival that will take place in late January.
• Choco-Mog Tee – A t-shirt with a moogle and a chocobo, available at the carnival (during late January).

If you’ve got the Season Pass, you’ll have to download the above manually. You’re eligible to get it, but it won’t be added to your game automatically. Within the Holiday Pack Plus, you’ll be getting the following:

• Ring of Resistance – An accessory that turns off friendly fire when casting spells.
• Tech Turbocharget – Increases the speed at which the tech bar fills, but stops the Armiger bar from advancing (only Noctis can use it).
• Armiger Accelerator – Increases the filling speed of the Armiger bar, but stops the tech bar from filling up (Noctis only).
• Stamina Badge – An accessory for Noctis that allows him to sprint forever.
• Key of Prosperity – An accesory that increases the drop rate of valuable items.
• Tactician’s Fanfare – An item that gives more AP for getting an A+ in finesse after combat.
• Blitzer’s Fanfare – An item that gives more AP for getting an A+ in time after combat.
• Carnival Passport – A ticket that grants entry to the carnival that will take place in late January.
• Holiday Pack Plus Exclusive Photo Frames – More photo frames for Prompto (coming in January).
• Festive Ensamble – A new attire based on a mariachi costume.

Aside from that, everyone will get the chance to try out New Game Plus, a mode that will allow you to play through the story again, with all your gameplay data intact. This means your end-game gear will become your starting equipment, but the enemies will be stronger as well. We’ll also get the ability to frame Prompto’s photos with various fancy picture frames.
